A beautiful blend of installation work and a café, a mix of natural and man-made structures. Warm and ambient despite its whimsical and eccentric nature.

The magnificent cliff at Point Britomart has been removed for extra land, causing it to be forgotten. It was fragile and discarded despite the roughness of the cliff rocks. The major focus of the design is on rediscovering the cliff rocks in quirky ways, which would pique the visitor’s interest in the installation area with the cliff rock sculpture.

The café reveals only glimpses of the installation’s interior to pique the visitor’s interest and entice them to understand what is happening inside. The distortion and the reflecting designs allow individuals to become a part of the artwork despite never entering the room.

Several whimsical features combine to create a one-of-a-kind experience for the visitor, from the absence of utensils to never seeing the server until the visitor chooses to seek them.
