Located in Cape Town, South Africa, is this amazing steampunk space for artisan coffee roasters, TRUTH. Coffee. Designed by Haldane Martin, steampunk was chosen as an appropriate conceptual reference, as both coffee roasters and espresso machines display elements of romantic, steam-powered technology.
Owner David Donde and his business partner Mike Morritt-Smith were both heavily involved in the concept and design, even physically helping to build parts of the interior.
The 600m² (6458 sq. ft) ground floor serves as Truth’s headquarters (the top two floors were converted into office rental space) and includes: a 120 seat restaurant, café, bar and kitchen, a 3-ton Probat roaster, a barista trainee school, public event space, coffee bean warehouse, espresso machine workshop, management office, and restrooms.
