By
Alyn Griffiths
Hand-rolled, kettle-boiled, baked to perfection. Worth every minute at the bakery.
Summary
Interior studio Atelier Tao+C has designed a new Blue Bottle Coffee cafe on Shanghai's West Bund waterfront, featuring distinctive wooden canopies that create a tent-like outdoor feeling. The cafe is located in a post-industrial site overlooking a historic shipyard on the Huangpu River, with the design incorporating prefabricated concrete counters and canopies that extend outward to provide shade and an open-air atmosphere. The project transforms a former industrial area into a modern coffee destination while preserving the site's industrial heritage.
