Project Description

 

Located off the main road, this café serves as a pause point for the various tourists, pilgrims and travelers. This low rise structure has been designed with care to merge with the surrounding landscape. Kandhlagrey granite that blends well with the terrain has been used for the exterior which is easy to maintain in the dry weather of Ambaji. The food court area has been designed keeping the structural framework simple and elegant, following a perpendicular grid layout. Large full height openings have been used that allows visitors to enjoy the outdoors to the maximum with the comfort of being indoors.With an aim to break the monotony of the rectangular space, a red tree motif furniture element has been used which divides the volume diagonally. This successfully breaks away from the strong presence of the grid while adding character and warmth to the space.The treatment of ceiling with plain bold red color contrasts well with the mild subtle patterns used for the flooring.The bold usage of the color red is inspired by the red sindoor of the Goddess Ambaji. The seemingly insignificant elements were also designed to the last detail. Customized table accessories, personalized signage and the thoughtful selection of art work make the space feel wholesome and ‘Eatlicious’!
