The coffee bar contains a brewing station, an espresso bar and a pastry bar. Handmade terrazzo tiles cover the floors and the exterior cladding, and the bar counter is made of acrylic. Opaque and glass surfaces are combined to bring daylight deep into the interior. The entrance was lowered to street level to order customer flow and to open the space to passersby.

- Production Technology
- Handmade terrazzo tiles have been used for floors and exterior cladding. The C bench was cast on-site with a molding technique. The bar counter is made of LG Hausys acrylic material. The mold was bent by heat treatment after manufacturing. The stairs to the first floor were bent from 10mm sheet metal, manufactured as one piece and placed with the help of a crane. The transparent divider screens were manufactured from a 40 mm facade polycarbonate panel.
- Design Challenge
- The fact that the bar area used to be 1 meter above street level, in the old structure of the venue, was a negative situation for the customers of the venue and this brand, which has a fast circulation. It was not easy to lower the entrance level to zero on a heavily trafficked street. The challenging factor for the designer was to consider the horizontal width of the architectural structure as a whole and to offer transparency to the people passing by.
- Project Duration
- The project started in January 2020 and it finished in June 2020. It is located in Ankara, Turkey.
- Operation Flow
- The project is divided into three parts Coffee Bar, terrace and work area. The entrance details and the bar layout have been designed to regulate and put the customer traffic in order. The Coffee Bar itself is also divided into three parts: Brewing Station, Espresso Bar and Pastry Bar. The C bench in the work area has been specially designed for periodically organized coffee workshops.
- Research
- With the design of the second branch of the brand, the main goals are to increase brand awareness and brand perception, reach new audiences and expand the customer age group from 25 to 45 into an age range from 15 to 45. The interior of the building has been completely demolished and rebuilt with an ergonomic layout. The transparency of the exterior design has been combined with the interior design elements. The project brought coffee making to the forefront and increased brand awareness on a traffic-filled street.
- Inspiration
- The project is inspired by simplicity and transparency. The designer has developed a refined and minimalist space design in line with the brand's philosophy. A wide, horizontal and unusual architectural structure has been created. Sculptural opaque and glass mixed materials have been used to bring daylight deep into the interior. The view of queuing, ordering and sitting has been meshed with strong energy by combining it with the outside.

Design Interview about Clinic Co Coffee Shop
I have adopted just pure coffee, which is the brand's view of coffee. Inspired by this philosophy, I designed a minimalist coffee shop. A simple and transparent design has been created that stands out on the brand`s products.
It took almost 2 months.
This design has been ordered for a newly established brand that aims to open up to the world.
We planned to rent or sell the production rights. In addition, it was established as a brand that we want to grow.
All coffee lovers are in search of qualified products.
The story of the prescription of quality coffee, as a result of hard work, as a result of experimenting with water and coffee ratios in a laboratory environment, inspired me to find the name Clinic. Along with the design name, the slogan Perfect cure for everyone became a complementary element to the design name.

It is a design that uses technology with features such as quick order & checkout systems, wireless charging points, digital menu boards, loyalty system.
Detailed research has been carried out for pre-design. All studies in similar sectors in the world have been examined and data about the sector have been collected.
To show that the brand design is an original concept design in domestic and international platforms. I can say that it is an international growth target.
