1900 coffee

Project: 1900 coffee
Design by: PVA, www.pva.archi
Location: Kyiv, Ukraine

Completed in 2020

The main feature of the 1900 coffee chain is the second life for the buildings of the early twentieth century. This time the project was being prepared for a 1911 building.

For almost 90 years of its existence, the building has gone from a monument of architecture and heritage of Kyiv architect Alyoshin to a place for the janitor's official needs. And only in the early 2000s, the gradual restoration of the historic site began. Initially in the form of a cafe-confectionery, where the main element of the decor was black drywall. And now, more than a century old building has become home to the 1900 coffee cafe, which cares about preserving the cultural heritage of our city.
