Geometry & fabrication
A parametric model translates the cloud into a sequence of layered profiles. The spacing and changing contours create the continuous ceiling form visible in the finished café.
A bakery interior where a parametric cloud brings a light, sculptural identity to the daily ritual of sharing bread.
The brief
Give a compact bakery a distinctive spatial identity and an inviting everyday atmosphere.
The response
A layered parametric cloud in recycled PET material, complemented by warm timber and intimate seating.
The idea: softness in the city
The layered white ceiling creates an unmistakable spatial signature. Its flowing contours turn the shopfront into a moment of discovery within the mall.
The detail: a different life for PET
The corporate profile describes recycled PET bottle material in the cloud feature. Parametric design translates a flowing form into a sequence of individual elements, connecting material choice with a distinctive interior.
The experience: craft within reach
Warm timber, intimate tables and views into the bread-making process give the sculptural setting a human scale. The ceiling draws visitors in; the everyday experience encourages them to stay.
How the idea was resolved.
Material & acoustic intent
Edition 2 identifies recycled PET fibre panels. Their porous structure and the layered geometry are used to support sound absorption and diffusion in the dining environment; the profile does not provide measured acoustic ratings.
Spatial integration
The cloud defines the café overhead while timber furniture and intimate table settings keep the occupied space at a human scale. The feature combines a brand signature with a practical acoustic purpose.
