Commune Café is a modern “Take Out Eat In” space organized around the service kitchen, with large custom food display units and dark stone countertops. The dining area has a capacity of 26 seats, and is comprised of a long white oak communal table with 18 red lacquer chairs and custom built booths at the perimeter. The four 2-person booths are cushioned with recycled wool industrial felt. Above the communal table hang three cork pendant lamps. At the back of the dining room there is a large scale, vibrant mural that depicts a time when the cafe was the hub of social life and the inspiration for the exchange of ideas and creativity.
There is a common design language used throughout Commune with Evoke being responsible for: interior design, custom-designed furniture, wall mural design and illustration, menus and all branding.
