An iconic kiosk for the entrance of Westfield City's Shopping Centre leading from the Queen Elizabeth's Olympic Park in London has been designed by award winning architectural practice Mizzi Studio.

The kiosk is of the Italian café brand Colicci.

Due to the site’s prominent location, the kiosk’s design is intended to provide a welcoming attraction for Westfield’s main entrance while drawing visitors into the café to sample Colicci’s organic products.

Inspired by nature, the design takes on the form of an abstract copper leaf blowing in the wind. Its entrance and internal ceiling mimics the mouth of an orchid to form a copper cave that lures the visitor and enriches customer experience.

The café’s sculptural roof is clad with 542 individual laser cut copper sections fixed utilising traditional handcraft over a fibreglass shell with some 20,000 rivets.

Mizzi Studio was founded by Jonathan Mizzi, 34. The studio is based in London and Malta and works across all scales and sectors, ranging from architecture, industrial design, lighting, interactive design and commercial artworks.

It has worked with several high-profile enterprises including The Royal Parks of Kensington and Chelsea, The Mondrian Hotel London, Zodiac Headquarters in Oxford Street, Tom Dixon and Marie Guerlain.

The Westfield Colicci kiosk has now opened for trade at London Westfield City, UK.
