For the new site of London Coffee Factory, Spaces & Stories designed an architectural partition wall separating the roastery from the café and offices while keeping open views onto the roasting line.

We developed custom Cupsan panels in shades of blue, green and grey, used as worktops, storage and display surfaces set within a reclaimed timber structure crafted by Yes Make using shipyard wood.

To create the panels, we recycled one tonne of discarded coffee cups, turning waste from the coffee industry back into the space itself.

From coffee cups to roastery surfaces.

We are so proud to say that our material Cupsan has been shortlisted in the in the Surface Design Category!!

For the past year, we’ve been completely focused on developing this board material made in our North West London studio from used coffee cups and paper collected across the city. From the beginning of Blast, our dream has been to imagine a city built from the waste it produces, and Cupsan is the fruit of this research. We see it as part of neo-vernacular approach to materials, using what’s locally available and abundant to build our interiors: our own waste.

Being recognised by the jury feels like an incredible encouragement to keep pushing this vision forward.

A huge thank you to everyone who’s supported us on this journey. for using Cupsan in the early days for the stunning . for integrating it into their beautiful furniture pieces. Keep your eyes out for a great project coming soon with 👀

We can’t wait to show you what’s coming next!! ✨

Turning urban waste into beautiful design using new technologies & nature

Taking inspiration from natural ecosystems, we aim to transform waste from the city into sustainable design. We develop a short cycle where we collect waste directly in West London and transform them thanks to mushroom into furniture.

We use the natural capacity of fungus’ roots - called mycelium - to digest organic matter and, we make it recycle coffee cups that we collect around London. The mycelium degrades the waste and transforms it into a biological and living material that we use to make sustainable design.
