The front cafe bar of the Grounds coffee center in Karlin, Prague.

In the old industry and now in fashion Karlin district in Prague, Czech Republic, reused building materials including a transparent corrugated plastic wall were used to create transparency between roasters, baristas and guests.

The roasting coffee project, called Grounds, is the brainchild of a restaurateur and Rusty Nails Coffee Roasters Founder René Kralovič. It opened to the public last December.

The design itself was created by the Prague company KOGAA and a team made up of Tomáš Kozelský, Alexandra Georgescu, Viktor Odstrčilík, Kateřina Baťková, Josef Řehák and Kateřina Čenovská.

KOGAA described the installation – which opens onto an interior courtyard of a mixed residential and office building – as a coffee center, where the different stages of coffee production and roasting preparation are intertwined, each being touched by a skylight moving in the center of the space.

The inner room on the lower level serves as an exhibition hall, quality control room, and education space, while the roasting production activities are relegated to the flanks of the interior. The facade near the entrance is a bar and lounge area while a tangerine staircase leads to the offices on the second floor.

KOGAA said the project used 80% construction waste from another defunct project, while the hanging lamps were repainted after their previous use at a now inactive weapons factory.
