We had a chat with the founder of April Coffee Copenhagen about their brand new venture - take a tour of their newly opened coffee shop with us!
We visited april’s founder Patrik Rolf last week at their newly opened Østebro coffee shop to discuss various design aspects of the place and why it was created.“We’ve been toying with the idea of creating a physical space for our customers for a while.
We are served gorgeous cups of coffee - resembling what you would call a cortado, but the widely used coffee shop nomenclature doesn’t really exist here. You will not see a menu as you walk in; instead, you can choose from having filter coffee, espresso or espresso with milk. There’s also a batch brew, mostly for sampling purposes. “We only serve coffee and water, focusing on what we know and do best,” explains Patrik, as my eyes wander seeking the usual pastry counter.
The other significant step in creating the shop was the interior design, which has been executed with great attention to detail, bringing together Danish and Japanese influences. The main feature was the collaboration with House of Finn Juhl, who manufacture the iconic pieces of furniture designed by Finn Juhl. By making the Finn Juhl pieces the basis of the space, april wanted to emphasise the Copenhagen heritage and unchangeable respect for quality, also evident in their products.
As we delve into further details, it’s obvious that everything at April conveys a story and is somehow related to the company. The Japanese elements have found their way into april through Patrik’s travels and relationships with various craftsmen.
Keeping with the Japanese theme, and what is possibly the first feature of the room that will catch your eye, a curtain has been designed and hand dyed at one of the last remaining indigo farms in Japan. Slightly translucent, the curtain divides the space in a very subtle way, which ensures privacy but doesn’t close off the space.“We like to believe the stories behind our shop’s many features correlate with our approach to coffee.
