KSQ developed an extremely adaptable environment, designed around a display cooking operation with a number of venues available including a convenience store, and coffee bar. The facility can be entirely open, entirely closed and partially open. A strong, rural or barn-like reference permeates the contemporary ambience. Microlam beams and corrugated laminates give the look of rough-hewn construction to serving counters, as country oak flooring and a “down home” warm color plan imply to the student and retail customer alike that this is a place to dine in “ laid back” comfort.
