OOZN Design have created this modern cafe in Jakarta using undulating timber slats.The name Six Degrees derives from the “six degrees of separation” theory that everyone is six or fewer steps away from any other person in the world. The owner envisaged the cafe as the meeting place for friends socialising over a cup of coffee. The design brief was simple: to make the cafe memorable, comfortable and distinctive. Located in Jakarta, 6 Degrees Cafe has a rectangular floor plan with a 16m shopfront. OOZN’s design response uses undulating timber panels which flow along the rear wall and ceiling in a singular powerful gesture meeting all of the brief requirements with a simple architectural device. The flowing panels create a distinctive design identity whilst creating a warm personal interior.
