Xiamen, one of the five treaty ports established in the 1800s, is home to the ‘Amoy Deco Style,’ a captivating fusion of Modernism and Art Deco, a style unique to the island of Kulangsu. The buildings combine Western architecture with traditional Chinese building materials, featuring red and white bricks. It is also characterized by outdoor spaces that are loosely connected to the indoor areas.
The entire store is designed as a semi-outdoor space, with two entrances, and a small building for the barista’s in the center. The building itself is covered with local red brick incorporating Xiamen’s trademark details and switches to a pure white world on the inside. The seating area is designed with the back of the benches showcasing mirrors separated by newly erected pillars to create views as if you’re looking through the windows. Immerse yourself in the history of Xiamen with brick cobblestone floors reminiscent of rug-like patterns, and comfortable chairs designed with a circular motif.
