On a quiet street, off the beaten track in downtown Toronto, Steven Fong Architect collaborated with design entrepreneur Lorne Gertner to turn a small gap between two converted warehouse buildings into a coffee shop and showroom.
A repurposed shipping container houses the walk-up barista station, with both street-side and interior counters.
Throughout the 330sf space, custom-fabricated and appropriated metal shelving holds an ever- changing collection of staple merchandise, one-off curiosities and accessories.
• Features barista station and merchandise area
• Communal table 6 seats
• Bar ledge 6 seats.
