In collaboration with Fadaa, The new Ameed Coffee branch near the Sixth Circle showcases a counter made from rammed earth, emphasizing sustainability and local sourcing. The selection process involved identifying the right soil to match the branch’s aesthetic, with various samples adjusted to ensure durability and visual appeal. Our team, oversaw the construction, working closely with builders using traditional ramming techniques. This counter is not only functional but also demonstrates the potential of local materials in modern design settings:
