Part cafe, shop and exhibition space is the recipe that was needed to make the cafe interior design for All That is Solid a success. As well as being located in the bustling city center, the concept store space in Glasgow is a hub of activity for local artists and designers. The shop is part of a venture that combines commercial and studio space, with a portion of funds earned given back to charity.
Since the space is required to do triple duty, the design of the space is quite minimal, featuring an all-white interior that's been dotted with quirky objects, art and furnishings. In contrast to the cozy feel of All That is Solid, the menu board at the coffee roasting station provides a sleek contrast to the rustic finishes in the space.
