Cafe

Karnal, Haryana

A small neighbourhood cafe, a fifty-cover room that does most of its work in plan and section, not in styling. The kitchen and counter are pushed to the long inner wall; banquettes line the windows; loose seating fills the middle so the room can be reshaped through the day.

The material palette is short: a single warm-grey terrazzo on the floor, oiled oak for the joinery, lime-washed plaster on the walls, and a single brass detail at the counter. Nothing fights for attention.

Counter, banquette, window, light, drawn in that order.
