2 Soon Café

A Sunset-Inspired Coffee Shop Interior Design in Hong Kong

2 Soon Café brings together architectural storytelling and emotional ambience to create a unique café interior design in Hong Kong. Inspired by Mitch Albom’s The Time Keeper, this design captures the fleeting warmth of a sunset in the desert — a symbolic invitation for visitors to pause and live in the moment.

Design Inspiration – “Sunset in the Desert”

To reflect the theme of “ephemeral beauty,” the exterior features a gradient façade made of textured paint, ceramic tiles, and metal cladding — evoking the transition of sunlight over shifting sands. The arched entryway, resembling a desert cave, introduces a tactile and sculptural language that leads into the café’s semi-outdoor coffee bar and takeaway area.

Key Interior Features

• Red Brick Dune Wall: Inside, a bold visual statement is made with slanted red bricks, designed to resemble desert sand dunes in motion.
• Perforated Brick Wall: Offers filtered sunlight and a visual connection with the neighborhood, enhancing spatial transparency.
• Curved Ceiling: Echoes the cave aesthetic, flowing naturally over the open kitchen area to evoke softness and depth.
• Upper Floor Private Area: A clay-toned ceiling, arched windows, and cement-textured walls complete a tranquil, minimal environment for quiet gatherings.

Mood and Material Palette

The use of earthy tones, natural textures, and architectural curves not only enhances the desert theme but also appeals to urban dwellers seeking warmth and authenticity. The material palette offers a sensory escape from the city, forming a serene, story-driven space.

Design Impact

2 Soon Café is more than a coffee shop — it is a temporal sanctuary, encouraging introspection and comfort. Through its immersive storytelling and symbolic materials, the café invites customers to find peace in the present, surrounded by artful spatial design.
