THE BLUE BOTTLE COFFEE JING’AN KERRY CENTRE CAFE PROJECT

The Blue Bottle Coffee Jing'an Kerry Centre Cafe Collection has its native setting in Blue Bottle Coffee Jing An Kerry Centre Café in Shanghai, China.
The Blue Bottle Coffee Jing'an Kerry Centre Cafe is an interior project located in the Kerry Centre in downtown Shanghai, an area that has prospered around the 1000-year-old Jing’an Temple.

As with the other Case Study 02 series, the entire café was designed by Keiji Ashizawa Design, who also designed the tailor-made wooden interior and furniture as components of the café. Some furniture, such as dining and lounge chairs, constitutes an additional element of the second collection of Karimoku Case Studies.

"I aim to use materials and design details rooted in local communities and regions. At the same time, I strive to maintain a balance between materials and details in new and existing cafes to express the brand's core values."

"I believe the contrast in the cafe, which is reminiscent of an alleyway in Shanghai, between leather furnishings and the seemingly rough skeleton of the interior, creates a pleasant tension when combined with the contemporary sensibilities and fine quality of the Blue Bottle Coffee brand."
