Coffee Law-Crystallization Temporal Cafe / CPD interiors
The 3-month pop-up cafe is located in a gutted, soon-to-be-demolished building. Using deconstruction as a method, basic building materials are applied to meld with the original rough-looking environment of impending demolition. Not only is the result time- and cost-efficient, but the sustainable materials and repurposed space also offer an example of urban regeneration. The deconstruction is the beginning. The reflections on the surfaces from various angles create a crystallization effect, which resembles the reactions that occur during urban transformation and reveals its transitional nature.
