Project Description
El Callejón is a coffee shop with only 47 sq m and place for 14 to 20 people. It is located on the base of a refurbished building in the historic center of Mexico City, a small business that characterizes the whole complex and is hard to miss. It is a space designed to have an encounter with the context, in the morning it is the ideal place for enjoying the neighborhood life and in the afternoon it transforms into a shop window that illuminates the street revitalized by the frequent clients that attend it.
It was designed with elements like wood, black wrought iron and glass. With a modest scale, yet very rigorous with the optimization of the elements like furniture, service areas and circulation, this place makes effective every resource to create a comfortable and serene ambiance, where all the components are in perfect balance.
El Callejón expects to be a particular model under which the language of the future commercial spaces comes from, the space to start the day and begin the tour through the city and all its palaces.
