Best of soft cafés
Un désir d’harmonie et de douceur se glisse dans les cafés contemporains. Les couleurs criardes et la décoration bling-bling laissent place à la subtilité dans des espaces où les moindres détails s’observent à la loupe dans un plaisir choisi de contemplation.
Les maîtres mots de cette tendance ? Cohérence et consistance. Ici, pas de place pour les fausses notes, la mélodie du décor doit sonner juste et piano. Une conception drainée par la matrice less is more.
Des nuances couleur café à la production de matériaux responsables en passant par les produits présentés et le mobilier… Une création portée par une génération de designers qui aime laisser le temps au temps.
Café Devocion

Devocion is a café that lives up to its name. The space, located in the heart of Brooklyn, dedicates its time to delivering coffee fresh from Colombia in less than 45 days. Designed by Lot Office for Architecture, the woody interior, organic walls and bright coral orange colour scheme strike the perfect balance between contemporary New York and a soft, warm, Latino feel.

Ottolenghi Chelsea
Ottolenghi Chelsea by Alex Meitlis © Helen Cathcart
With its terrazzo tiles, textured walls and Mediterranean ambience, Ottolenghi Chelsea brings a fresh, sunny touch to its interiors. Designed by Israeli architect Alex Meitlis, the café mixes an earthy, artisanal look, that of the walls, with furniture that is curved and sharp. The final touch? The play of light on the relief of the different materials.

Café Manly Wharf
Café Manly Wharf by Alexander &CO. © Anson Smart
An eco-responsible vision of design and a certain minimalism. This is what drives the design team at Alexanders & Cowhen it started renovating the Marnly Wharf Café. And with good reason: the benches, bricks and table legs are made from masonry waste. And the rest? Space, lots of light and a fresh approach less is more are the basis of the slightly old-fashioned decoration.
Maison de thé Teemaa
Teemaa Teahouse by Yatofu Creatives © Aleksi Tikkala
Originally from the continent that gave birth to tea, Peng Luo and Xinyuan Sui have made tea their passion. In the heart of the capital of Helsinki, the two women have opened a place where the rigorous tasting of its herbs and serenity are the rule. A space where shades of beige, ochre and taupe are in perfect harmony and where the smallest object and vegetation becomes a pictorial art.

Café La Petite
La Petite coffee, Abu Dhabi by Bone Studio © Oculis project
An imposing pink plaster counter dominates the sparse interior of this café in Al Ain, Abu Dhabi. In a bid for consistency and minimalism, the counter becomes a bar for the waiter or a seat for the visitor in the same line. An elegant layout designed by the Bone design studio, which was inspired by majlis, reception rooms where guests are generally received sitting on floor cushions.
