Quiet Moments and a Cup of Brew

When the world is at odds

and the mind is all at sea

then cease the useless tedium 

and brew a cup of coffee.

There is magic in its fragrance, 

there is solace in its taste; and the laden moments vanish

somehow into space.

The world becomes a lovely thing, there is beauty as you'll see;

all because you briefly stopped...

to brew a up of coffee....

Quiet moments in secluded environments are what get you through a long day.

Inspirational Findings

Paris based Achitects, Yoonseux Architectes added wooden surfaces and red floors to this school classroom building in the city of Livry Gargan, to echo the autumnal tones of neighbouring trees. 

One of the classrooms

Built to accommodate the expanding number of pupils, the extension occupies a site between two of the school's existing buildings. Just two concrete columns support the 15-meter span of the roof, offering minimal disruption to the space underneath.

open corridor

It provides a sheltered courtyard and three classrooms, linked together by a long corridor that faces the playground from the front of the building.

Horizontal metal bars separate the courtyard from the garden and allow sunlight to filter through, creating a pattern of light and shadow on the ground.

Lovely light patterns as well as a bit of shading, not full sun  penetration

Wait is that inside or outside

Amazing how the exterior public space simply flows into the building. One can hardly tell the difference between outside and inside.

The kind of concept i am looking to achieve in my "Hybrid" design.
