Ruby Red Café, Café Expansion and Renovation

SECTOR
Café
LOCATION
Māngere Bridge, Auckland

Project Overview
Annan Interiors was tasked with combining an existing 45-square-metre café with the neighbouring shop to create additional space, while keeping the café open throughout the process. The café had a great outdoor seating area, but expanding the interior was essential for accommodating increasing demand.

The Challenge
The main challenge was to remove a solid concrete wall that separated the two shops, supporting the roof and a 5-meter cantilevered veranda. We also had to build a new bathroom structure with two standard toilets, an accessible toilet, and a powder room, all while ensuring the café remained operational 7 days a week.

Client Brief
The client wanted a quality design that reflected the local community vibe. They sought a design that blended seamlessly with the neighbourhood and encouraged local customers to continue visiting.

Our Solution
At Annan Interiors, we embrace challenges. We managed everything from demolition and engineering to excavation and construction, ensuring minimal disruption to the café’s operations. The final result was a stylish, community-friendly café with enhanced facilities and a welcoming atmosphere.
