Making a statement with architecture

November 5, 2004

Ini Ani is a small coffee store in the Lower East side of New York. Its architects, Lewis, Tsurumaki and Lewis have used the space creatively and built a tiny coffee palace. The place could not be further away from the typical Starbucks experience. Ultra-modern, clean and yet comfortable, it’s astounding that this work was completed for a budget of just $40,000.

It shows that architecture, when used wisely, can be a powerful creative force and allow smaller brands to create differentiation from their bigger spending competitors.
