This Pancake Cafe Used A Bold Yellow To Highlight Its Curved Ceiling

November 10, 2022

Visitors to this modern cafe are greeted by the soft curve and bright yellow of the high ceiling as it frames a modern temple-like structure.

Design firm Studio Yimu, has recently completed Fuwa Fuwa Golden Square, a Japanese pancake cafe in Mississauga, Canada.

Visitors are greeted by the soft curve and bright yellow of the high ceiling as it frames a modern temple-like structure, where the service area is positioned.

Lighting is hidden throughout the cafe, like behind the sign, above the service area, and along the walls.

Each side of the cafe has different seating. The first side is more casual with wall-mounted tables, stools, and a view of the service area.
