There’s a reason why a lot of people choose to go to coffee shops or cafes to work or hang out. The smell of freshly brewed coffee is enticing, a quick sip of joe perks you up. However, working in cafes can rack up some pretty hefty expenses. Iced coffee can be one very expensive vice. Here’s an idea. Let’s bring in that cafe aesthetic in your living space.
The Clean Aesthetic
You can’t go wrong with a minimalist, all-white cafe aesthetic. This makes any space feel larger, airier, and cleaner. Afraid of going for white walls? Try painting your room with Virtuoso Silk Touch. This paint is formulated with an Easy Clean technology that makes wiping off dirt and stains a breeze. Not to mention, it comes in a luxurious matte finish as well. Check out our recommended palettes below.
Sleek and Modern
A lot of coffee shops here in the Philippines are still opting to go for an industrial feel for their interiors. It looks sleek and classy, but also rugged and laidback at the same time. Get the look by using Konstrukt Lunar Series. It’s a collection of 9 modern cement finishes using Konstrukt Construction Chemicals products. Check out all the available designs below.
Warm and Cozy
Going to cafes for their warm and cozy vibes? Incorporate a lot of wooden elements into your space. Aside from the usuals like floorings and furniture, you can accent the space with wooden wall panels or ceilings as well. Get the look with Boysen’s Oil Wood Stain.
