We integrated this cafe seating into the existing landscape, preserving mature trees to create a light-filled, nature-centric commercial pavilion.

The entrance to the Bake House, framed by a traditional archway. The view reveals a glass-and-wood pavilion built carefully around existing trees, immediately establishing the project's nature-centric theme.

The ornate front gate of the Bake House, offering a glimpse of the tropical, garden-like cafe within. The design creates a sense of discovery and an escape from the city.

The main dining hall features a high, pitched roof and glass walls, creating a light-filled, greenhouse-like atmosphere. The wooden structure and large windows frame views of the surrounding trees.

A small, intimate seating area looks out into the main courtyard. The use of extensive glazing dissolves the boundary between the indoor and outdoor dining spaces.

The outdoor seating area is designed to fit between the trunks of mature trees. The checkered floor and simple furniture create a classic European cafe feel, transported into a tropical Bangalore garden.

About Bake House: A Cafe Built Around Nature

Designing for commercial hospitality requires balancing high-traffic user flow with structural preservation. In this project, we integrated seating zones around mature trees while maintaining clear sightlines for both staff and patrons, ensuring the glass house structure remains fully functional without compromising the existing natural landscape.
