By extracting the essential parts and visual identity of the TED’S COFFEE CO. brand, this self-sufficient module was shaped. It can be placed in any urban space, waiting to serve its purpose: serving coffee to-go. The element’s shape and color reminds you of the coffee bean. Adjacent, the TED’S exterior benches can be multiplied and associated, however is needed, depending on the context. When closed-up, the box looks like an impenetrable Cor-ten monolith. Once opened, it becomes welcoming, due to the closing panel that transforms into a protective blind, and the reveal of the warm inside, finished with the specific brand materials and shades.Jury Comment
