RESEARCH ABSTRACT: A big part of the research was about how to make the whole project with recycled materials ,because Recycling is important in today’s world if we want to leave this planet for our future generations. It is good for the environment, since we are making new products from the old products which are of no use to us , When you think of recycling you should really think about the whole idea; reduce, reuse and recycle .
CHALLENGE: The challenge for this project was both place and the project materials .
the goal was to minimize the impact of construction on the site . Container was transformed into a stylish coffee bar. A wooden ceiling was built in, concealing the original industrial steel surface to create a warm, cozy ambiance. In contrast, the external facade retains its original industrial aesthetic.
