Designer's Note
“The design concept in Whistler strives to create a connection between coffee and the natural landscapes of Canada. Situated within the mountainous terrain of a renowned ski resort, the interior draws inspiration from the beauty and allure of ice caves. A meticulously crafted white metal mesh forms interconnected domes across the ceiling, aiming to create a sense of purity in the space. The counter is strategically placed centrally within the space to ensure a clear line of sight from the entrance, enhancing accessibility and visual appeal from the outside.
These domes not only delineate distinct areas but also maintain a sense of mystery, evoking the exploration of both nature and coffee. The furniture design features light and fluid shapes that blend seamlessly with the surroundings, creating an aesthetic that considers safety in the skiing area.
Finally, the signage incorporating the % symbol adopts a simple yet captivating form, mirroring the interior design’s ethos. This distinctive visual element attracts patrons to gather at the store regardless of the weather conditions.”
