ABOUT THE PROJECT
A colourful coastal destination overlooking the Cornish coastline.
Created for Driftwood Spars in St Agnes, The Crib Shack transforms a simple container into a striking café and ice cream destination that celebrates its unique seaside setting.
Finished in a bold turquoise colour and positioned to take advantage of the surrounding views, the unit provides visitors with a welcoming space to grab refreshments while enjoying the Cornish coast. Three serving hatches create an open and engaging customer experience, helping the kiosk operate efficiently during busy summer periods.
A rooftop terrace offers additional seating with elevated sea views, while integrated planters soften the structure and introduce greenery throughout the design. The result is a memorable hospitality space that has become a distinctive feature of the Driftwood Spars site.
