La Botiga
La Botiga is a project born from the idea of providing a unique experience to its customers through its pastries and specialty coffee. The design was based on very clear design guidelines: the space had to be welcoming but at the same time evoke an elegant simplicity.

In this small space, it was crucial to understand the operation and give each activity the appropriate amount of space.
