Lone Light Coffee
In designing this popular coffee shop on Charlottesville's historic Downtown Mall, we were faced with a dated, poorly laid out space. The Owner wanted to create multiple unique areas within this small space with a "Japandi" theme, to maximize its efficiency. The resulting design creates an inviting hangout spot with multiple distinct areas, all within a unified concept, enhancing the ambiance and establishing a new distinct brand identity for Lone Light Coffee.
The Feature Wall
A striking feature wall serves as the focal point, with bold illumination and dark colors in the foreground.
The Bar
A small bar height area offers quick, casual seating while the lighter wood contrasts the mahogany counters.
The Built-In Seating
A new row of built-in seating offers a warm, cozy area to chat, work, and hang out.
The Lounge Area
A lounge area by the full height front windows creates a more casual, open seating space for larger groups.
The Unified Concept
A bold accent color, in conjunction with acoustic wood paneling, ties both halves of the space together while maintaining each side's unique characteristics.
A very special thanks to Scott Zetlan for the photography.
