Built upon the same site as an emerging Starbucks in Muncie, IN, the coffee shop attempts to slowdown the traditional visitor and create a place of refuge rather than one of passing through. Overall form developed to allow the visitor various areas within which they can enjoy their coffee. A patio and green roof allow visitors to sit outdoors, while the indoors provides both a bar and adaptable open space. Building is oriented to allow for natural lighting throughout the day and, when necessary, natural ventilation. Final presentation drawings were stylized as a way to further evoke the relaxing quality of the site and to evoke branding within the representation.
