A contemporary take on the espresso cafe, nestled in to one of London’s iconic tube stations. Imagined as a place that can offer a quick daily dose of coffee, seen as a contemporary form of the modern day pharmacy. The materials and tones bring a warmth and calmness away from the busy street, providing a moment of pause. The simple yet formal elevation on the street is a sharp contrast to the framed stonework of the original building. The backdrop to the bar is a milky screen giving a glimpse into the back of house, a nod to the pharmacy references and places where the product is always on show.
