In its debut at CASACOR Bahia , the TRPC Arquitetos office designed the Coffeetown Cafeteria. The young architects Adalberto Vilela, Cecília Miscow, Tiago Schultz and Vanessa Sampaio worked on a recurring theme in their architectural investigations: the archetype of the house , the arrangement of volumes and scale, considering a careful implementation in the event's food court.

With a simple architectural gesture of extruding the silhouette of a house, the architects designed a café that catches the eye at first sight.

The cafeteria serves as the entrance to the event square, with a volume marked by transparency and symmetry , a composition that invites visitors to take a break for a coffee and cake, while watching the outdoor activities throughout CASACOR .

The east-facing glass wall expands the space by integrating the interior with the exterior, and gives the complex a very different day and night look .
