Project Description

Located on Beverly Drive, this café and coffee boutique was designed to complement the area's busy street-life. In a region disparaged as slavishly oriented to the car, this is one of the few neighborhoods where the stroll is king. With this in mind, Goring & Straja's design team imagined a space where patrons could come to shop, meet one another, linger, and savor. 

​

The challenge of this boutique was to synthesize an international brand with this distinct local spirit. The architectural stepping off point is Southern California’s strong foundation of regional modernism.
