Pedersen + Lennard built a custom display wall to show their wares, like the Bucket stools shown here. The studio selected the east city area for their shop for. "It was a forgotten area and many people told us it was a crazy idea to open shop there but we liked the feeling of it and saw that there was some new life coming to the area," Pedersen says. "Our cafe has helped to draw creatives back to the area and given people an alternative to some of the more popular parts of the Central Business District which are often very busy with tourists. The shop [at 37 Barrck Street] is not easy to find which we quite like."  Photo 3 of 7 in Coffee Break: Cape Town’s Field Offices by Diana Budds
