New Tree Cafe in downtown San Francisco was a unique project brought to life through a collaboration between Atelier 19AD6 and Linsey Dunn. The team custom-designed and built every element of the space, with a strong focus on sustainability. The cafe was envisioned as a serene forest retreat amidst the bustling urban environment, offering patrons a peaceful respite from the hectic pace of city life.
Sustainability was a cornerstone of the design, with extensive use of bamboo—a fast-growing, eco-friendly material—and recycled products throughout the space. The design team’s commitment to sustainability was matched by their innovative approach, utilizing advanced 3D modeling and renderings to bring the concept to life. The resulting space evoked the feeling of walking through a forest, with organic forms and natural materials enveloping visitors in a calm, welcoming atmosphere.
This project exemplified the power of custom design and sustainable architecture in creating a distinctive, impactful space in the heart of San Francisco. New Tree Cafe was more than just a place to grab a coffee; it was a thoughtfully designed sanctuary that connected people with nature, even in the midst of a busy urban landscape.
