The designer shelving, which is two stories high, also serves as the background of several tables in the bar. Yudin brothers took the idea of its free shape from bees honeycombs.
The main concept from YUDIN Design for the logo of this café became the cezve. This symbol refers to Turkey and one of the most famous and spectacular ways of making coffee - in the Turkish coffee pot.
The associations with the shape of the cezve is expressed also in the name of the coffee bar that was proposed by YUDIN Design studio.
The coffee shop is located in one of the most central streets of Kiev. The designers Aleksandr and Vladimir Yudin created an exterior that helps to identify the coffee bar, but not to violate the architectural solution of the whole building.
The coffee house interior is composed by different materials, but all of them have been chosen in warm tones.
The Ukrainian designers deliberately chose for the design of the café materials that create barely perceptible an effect of aging: light wood and the coarse plaster, red brick and a burning copper. The scattered lighting complements the impression.
The pleasant lighting in the interior created by the designer fixtures from the studio YUDIN Product and technical lighting, located in the niches.
An useful decoration of this modern bar is the coffee machine Victoria Arduino - this legendary apparatus has been brewing coffee for more than a century, since 1905.
Especially for TAKAVA coffee buffet, the designers Vladimir and Aleksandr Yudin came up with pouffes in the form of a cezve, the symbol of which goes through the whole concept of the institution.
The planning of the coffee bar TAKAVA is made to feel comfortable both in a company and alone. And in the same moment - there is enough space for the staff work.
In the modern cafè interior is possible to find loft elements. Particularly the ground floor of the cafè differs in this.
Shelving designed by the custom made furniture has been projected by the studio YUDIN Product, that is a branch of YUDIN Design studio.
All furniture for the coffee shop interior was designed to be comfortable and to perform the role of the scenery for the common idea of TAKAVA coffee buffet
The design of the toilets in the bar is simple, but also preserves the stylistics of the whole institution
The main idea of the logo of the coffee house TAKAVA is the cezve, or rather, the coffee pot, which is preparing coffee in Turkish way. Having created logo, the Ukrainian designers found in it a concentrate of ideas that were used in the interior
Especially for the design of the coffee bar, the designers Vladimir and Aleksandr Yudin created the tall wooden rack with the backlighting in each niche
Each piece of the coffee bar interior was either created by YUDIN Product studio or was chosen personally by the Ukrainian designers Vladimir and Aleksandr Yudin
YUDIN Design studio successfully presented the zone of the bar: it can be easily seen from the street and the view from the second floor of the cafe to the first one also represents an interesting picture
The huge glass door on the facade allows to see from the street almost the entire cafè interior. And vice versa to admire the city life sitting in the coffee bar.
The multicolored velour pouffes were also designed by the Ukrainian interior designers. They diluted the coffee coloring of the restaurant.
On the second floor Aleksandr and Vladimir Yudin decided to install a vinyl record player to not only look at the vinyl collection of the coffee shop, but also to enjoy its silk sounds along with a coffee.
The fixture in the shape of the jezve designed by YUDIN Product was produced by the masters of the Lviv factory PikArt Lighting
The interior lighting of the coffee house creates comfort and correctly reflects the design techniques
For the decoration of the interior, Yudin brothers used both technical light and decor lighting of their own design.
In the cafè interior everything reminds about the Turkish way of brewing coffee. Even small tables are made in the likeness of the cezve.
The Ukrainian interior designers have found an unusual but successful combination for this modern coffee bar: velour and minimally processed wood.
A neat brickwork visually combines all the materials used to implement this coffee bar interior.
Another unusual and successful combination of materials in this original interior is the copper and a light wood. The special charm is given by soft lighting, installed in the niches along the perimeter of the cafe.
TAKAVA coffee buffet is one of the most atmospheric coffee bars in Kiev. Its originality is ensured by the fact that YUDIN Design studio created the brand from scratch: starting with naming, finishing with the interior design.
All elements of the coffee bar brand were created by the Ukrainian designers Aleksandr and Vladimir Yudin.
In any detail you will find an element that runs along the entire concept of the coffee house interior - the jezve shape.
Even the WC sign is interpreted in this coffee shop interior under the general style and brand.
The talented interior designers have done such that even reading the WC sign you again repeat the name of the coffee bar, TAKAVA.
TAKAVA coffee-buffet is a modern coffee shop in the center of Kiev. The brand, the interior and exterior of it were created by the designers Aleksandr and Vladimir Yudin.
Brothers Yudin were invited to create the new brand of the coffe shop that will attract business people by some interesting and fleur atmosphere. The Ukrainian interior designers made for the coffe brand everything, starting from the name and finishing to the last detail of the interior, as for example the takeaway cups. All the packege of VIS services was made by the head designers of the YUDIN Design studio very fast. The logo of the coffee shop is playing around with the shape of a Turkish dzezva. The sensation of the same "proven place" and its association with the Turkish coffee shop became the leading motifs in the moder cafè interior for the coffee bar TAKAVA.
