Slowpoke Espresso

Up-cycling timber
Sustainability Architecture
Low cost Construction

I like this design because it is very simple, there is no expensive materials, or luxury details. Walls are made from up-cycling rustic timber. It creates simplicity, but also gives quality look. Boards on the walls gives cosy feeling that you are at home.

Some wider blocks protrude from the wall to create shelves for condiments above each table. Tabletops are made from recycled floorboards and other furniture and lampshades were sourced from local flea markets. The street signage is a solar powered recycled tool box, and the business cards are hand cut from disused cardboard packaging.
