COOL SPACES: INK CAFÉ IN DOHA
DESIGN - VISI MAGAZINE - DECEMBER 15, 2022
Seemingly inspired by the black-and-white world of Norwegian band A-HA’s iconic ’80s music video, the INK CAFÉ in Doha has come up with a very Instagrammable (and clearly very cost-effective) decor concept.
While lead singer Morten Harket had to bang his head repeatedly against the panels of his comic-strip confinement and basically rip apart the fabric of time and space to exit the monochrome world, all you have to do to enter this one is open the front door.
Located in Doha’s Lusail Marina Food Arena, the Ink Café’s black-and-white decor is all about optical illusion as 2D- inspired pen-drawn cartoons mess with your 3D world. The white interior is a canvas for trompe l’oeil trickery disguised among actual tables, chairs and mugs that will have you reaching for something only Morten could grab.
