CUBUS COFFEE IS THE TRANSFORMATION OF A SMALL EXISTING PAVILION LOCATED WITHIN ONE OF FRANKFURT’S HISTORIC INNER-CITY PARKS. SURROUNDED BY THE MATURE TREES AND OPEN LAWNS OF HOLZHAUSENPARK, THE PROJECT REINTERPRETS THE SIMPLE CUBIC STRUCTURE AS A CONTEMPORARY CAFÉ SPACE CLOSELY CONNECTED TO ITS LANDSCAPE.

THE DESIGN FOCUSES ON CLARITY, WARMTH, AND MATERIAL AUTHENTICITY. NATURAL MATERIALS, PRECISE DETAILS, AND A RESTRAINED PALETTE DEFINE THE INTERIOR ATMOSPHERE AND EXTEND THE CALM CHARACTER OF THE PARK INTO THE SPACE. CUSTOM-BUILT FURNITURE, CONTINUOUS SEATING ELEMENTS, AND 
AN INTEGRATED SERVICE COUNTER STRUCTURE THE INTERIOR WHILE MAINTAINING AN OPEN AND WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT.

BY CAREFULLY REWORKING THE EXISTING STRUCTURE AND INSERTING NEW HANDCRAFTED ELEMENTS, THE PROJECT CREATES A QUIET PLACE FOR PAUSE AND EVERYDAY SOCIAL EXCHANGE WITHIN THE LANDSCAPE OF HOLZHAUSENPARK.
