Collectus’ approach to the new Friends Avenue was rooted in honoring its homegrown charm while introducing a refreshed, more connected design language. Inspired by the brand’s original attitude and aesthetic, the interior reinterprets the relationship between line and square through a structured grid of ceramic tiles and glass blocks, creating a framework that balances openness with subtle pockets of privacy.
The layering of proportions and varying heights enhances the spatial experience, making it both dynamic and intuitive. At its core, the redesign fosters meaningful interactions by blending open seating with intimate nooks, ensuring the space adapts to different moods and activities throughout the day.
