The café is situated in a park at the outskirts of Megara. The desire to create a continuous space, that follows the movement of visitors and interacts with the natural environment, led to the folding form of the café. The space within the structure is defined by a continuous concrete strip, folding upon itself, that creates terraces and walkways.
