This cafe is located in one of the busiest lane in JP Nagar, Bangalore. The distinctive branding of DRIP and DROP envelopes the essence of their specialty coffee. It serves as the muse for the sophisticated orange and black design of the elevation. Drip and Drop Coffee is an experiential haven where design and flavor intertwine.

The client's first and foremost interest was to provide a welcoming seating space with ample parking. They made room for parking by moving part elevation to the back while keeping the design dramatic and appealing with the brilliant hues taken from the logo itself. It forms a type of walkway before approaching the cafe. The indoor environment was critical in ensuring that the elevation was noticeable from the road. To enhance interiors from street view, they used black light fixtures and orange highlights on the ceiling.

The use of an expansive window display elevates the café and makes it feel warm and inviting. The combination of cherry, beige, and white for the lighting and furniture was to ensure a harmonious interior design. Orange accents on the walls and ceiling add to highlights to the space.

The interior and exterior seating space are interconnected, facilitating the passage of natural light. The skylight adds a little flair as it illuminates the espresso station. The dynamic hues infuse the room with vibrant vitality making it a comfortable space and with the presence of plants and greenery enhances the visual appeal, comfort, and mood of their customers.

They divided the space into indoor and outdoor areas to allow more sunlight into the interior of the building. The indoor coffee station has a coffee machine station and a hand brew station, allowing you to conduct specialty coffee events without disrupting other areas for dining. For the built-up space, they used I-section beams and columns to facilitate quick construction. For safety reasons, they ensured that the office, storage, and kitchen areas had cement block walls. The cafe front features a tall orange wall made of bison board panels covered on fabricated MS framework. The deck slab on top waterproofs the space beneath the roof.
