Parat has designed the interior for the new café and pâtisserie Liebes Bisschen in Hamburg. The space combines references to the 1950s with a contemporary palette of colours and materials. The layout has been restructured to create a generously proportioned front-of-shop hospitality space with a small salon and the bakery looking back out onto the interior courtyard. Seamless Terrazzo-style designer screed is used to maintain a unified colour concept throughout the café.

On each side of the main room, upholstered benches have been placed along the walls; the table groups towards the centre of the space feature a range of colours and seating. In front of the rear wall, a long counter marks the end of the open room. Structured into two parts by wooden panelling on the one side and a signet on the other, the counter also houses an inset glass display for cakes, tartes, and gâteaux.

With its window into the bakery, the backroom offers a quiet space for customers and can also be used for bookings. Its table is tailored to fit around the free-standing column at the centre of the room, while wall shelving and a chandelier made of teak make for a homely ambiance.
