Description
|
This little café, occupied in
2012 by Costa Coffee, sits at the heart of
Brindley Place Square in Birmingham.
The architects, CZWG, responded to a brief
that called for a building that was, "
... a focal point of the new
commercial development at
Brindleyplace." What
they came up with was an, " ... ‘eye-shaped’
glass and steel building ... at the
centre of a radial pattern of York
stone paving within an intensive
landscape of semi-mature trees,
sculpture, a large water feature and
‘shaped’ grassed areas."
It is designed to accommodate 40
customers and more if the weather
cooperates!
