Biodegradable 3D-Printed Pop-Up Cafes

The Nescafé Dolce Gusto Neo store is a pop-up cafe constructed with style and sustainability in mind to provide citizens and visitors of São Paulo, Brazil with a new kind of retail experience.
The structure is characterized by its simple, naturalistic and stylish form that has been 3D-printed using a mix of glued laminated timber (GLT) sourced from reforested pine trees along with fixed axes. The space maintains an open-concept feel thanks to a total of five glass door archways that look out onto the surrounding landscape of the public park it's situated in.
The Nescafé Dolce Gusto Neo store is positioned as a first-of-its-kind for Latin America and draws inspiration from the profile of the coffee flower, which is better revealed with an eagle eye view.
