The original building was the storage hall of the Liberec railway station, the imaginary ridge that halves Liberec. The empty space looked monumental, the windows glazed with yellow panels in the summer twilight colored the summer air into a story. We were brought here by friends who had a roastery in Liberec, which in a soon became famous. The original design provided for several installations of various functions, roasting, baking, the hustle of the business, the desire to make yourself happy. During the design they grew until they filled the entire hall. This dynamic development is the leitmotif of the final solution. The inserted volumes define each other, but at the same time they look at each other. No matter where you look from, you usually see something inside and even further. This interior game also draws in the world around it, the tracks, the highway, the desire to go somewhere, the city, the mountains on the horizon. Rich views that are in the spirit composed of stories.

The visual identity of the client, NORDBEANS, is based on the motifs of the Nordic landscape. The architectural concept works with materials that match the the original building, with wood and fiberglass. The 14 m wide wooden building is part of a line of docks, divided into sections of about 35 m, which are gradually being repopulated and transformed. Clear height along the wall 5.5 m, in the ridge 7.6 m. Floor plan divided only by a grid of columns that support the gable roof. The lower structure of the building was in a state of disrepair. Wooden floor beams and foundations were replaced. The perimeter of the half-timbered masonry and the roof cladding have been preserved. The roof is superimposed. On one side there is a railway platform and a track, on the other side there is a road to Prague. Facade divided by sliding gates. The morphology adhered to the sloping struts of the truss structure, naming them blue-green mountains and glaciers, the two main landmarks.
