Train Station Tearooms

BRIEF

To provide a tearoom design for a train station by looking at the existing plan to give a more functional layout as the location of the counter and the way customers travelled around the space was impractical.

​

CONCEPT

Redesigning the tearooms to reflect the heritage of the train station, was the main focal point of the design by creating the fixed seating to look like train seating booths with innovative storage racks above. Opening up the wall to gain a view through to the shop has not only allowed people to see through the space but also creates a feel of looking down a train. Choosing materials and lighting that have been influenced by the location was important to create a industrial feel to the space. Opening up the entrance to the shop and extending the cafe has allowed extra seating space while creating a grab-and-go system meant that a better floor layout could be achieved.
