THE COFFEE STUDIO
5628 North Clark, Chicago, IL
www.TheCoffeeStudio.com


CHALLENGE:
Lee and Miguel Cano wanted to open an uncluttered, mid-century modern coffee shop with the highest quality coffee. The Coffee Studio needed to be memorable, comfortable, sustainable, and express the owners’ passion for great design.

SOLUTION:
The coffee shop has exposed Chicago common brick and a simple white drywall ceiling cloud in the center. Minimal recessed downlights keep the central area simple and sleek; simple geometric pendants front and rear cap the cloud. Track lights allow flexible spotlighting of graphics and modular retail product display. The floor is sustainable cork-based linoleum, and the counter front is faced with simple lumber. A large communal table near the storefront allows patrons to interact in larger groups, and free wifi and ample power receptacles allow locals to study and work away from home with ease.
