"In Skórzewo, Poland, mode:lina™ architects translate the anatomy of a cake into an interior for Bez Rodzynek, a 25-square-meter studio. Led by architect Kinga Kin, the design takes the familiar elements of frosting, piped borders, and sugar decorations and reworks them into architectural motifs, using color, relief, and glass to construct a small but visually rich environment centered on artisanal cakes."
"The Polish architects of mode:lina™ treat surfaces with a similar sweetness-meets-structure logic. The floor and countertop are tiled in an irregular pattern that reads almost like crumbled chocolate, a graphic counterweight to the uniform pink. This material choice adds visual depth while meeting the durability required for intensive daily use. Meanwhile, a system of rounded cornices winds across the perimeter, wrapping walls and ceiling in a 'pearl-like' rhythm that echoes decorative cake borders."
mode:lina™ transformed a 25-square-meter studio in Skórzewo, Poland, into a cake-focused micro-interior that translates frosting, piped borders, and sugar decorations into architectural motifs. Walls and ceiling are coated in a warm, full-bodied pink that foregrounds textured relief as the primary contrast. A counter aligned with the entrance centers the cake display; its glass-block base refracts daylight to create a gelatinous, translucent quality. Irregular floor and countertop tiling mimic crumbled chocolate while rounded cornices, stacked-sphere table legs, and wavy window tabletops reference cake borders and sugar decorations. A looping neon sign evokes piped frosting and marks the storefront.
