cool café

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but the owners of this Hood Street, Hamilton café would prefer to forgo the flattery and keep their unique look strictly one of a kind.

While most strive for smooth walls, this café has installed Muros roughcast concrete panels, giving an authentic rough concrete finish to pillars, beams and walls. The Muros panels are finished in Environmental Choice approved Resene Lumbersider low sheen waterborne paint, though could have easily been finished in Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen if a lower sheen finish had been desired.

In a competitive market where cafes need to stand out to attract repeat business, the uniqueness of the finishing makes this café very memorable.
