Community Connection

Beyond convenience, the project enhances the experience of the surrounding Redlands Packing House District. Guests have the option to linger on pedestrian-friendly patios, enjoying the outdoor ambiance and connecting with the energy of the neighborhood.

The coffee shop serves as both a functional amenity and a gathering spot that reinforces the sense of community.

Architectural Character

The design stands out through its welcoming butterfly roof and careful selection of materials. These elements not only provide visual identity but also draw inspiration from the region’s agrarian-rich history, grounding the building in its cultural and environmental context.

The architecture reflects both tradition and modernity, creating a recognizable landmark within the district.
