The highlight of this design is a framework made from solid wood, which extends from ground to ceiling. To create complexity as well as keep a sense of rhythm, the vertical wooden stripes attached to the ceiling are different in length. A bread showcase is placed in the center of this timber framework, which breaks the holistic design of this full-height framework. This measurement aims to attract the view of customers to the showcase, which stressed the characteristic of WITHWHEAT.
