Built World Academy

#AnneFrankHouse #coffeeshopambience #coffeeshop
The Namelok-designed museum cafe at the Anne Frank House combines the contrasting elements of rush and reflection, drawing inspiration from the postwar period and the desire for rapid progress juxtaposed with the need for contemplation.

The cafe's layout accommodates both hurried visitors and those seeking a serene space for reflection.

A 9-meter-long bar acts as the central feature, with a dynamic atmosphere at the front for quick purchases, while the back offers a quieter ambiance with views of the Westerkerk and comfortable seating.
