Arabica’s Mall 30 location was featured in the design and lifestyle magazine Wallpaper* last week. I haven’t been to that location yet because it’s so out of my way, but I had seen photos of it and it really is a beautiful space.
The interior was designed by the Japanese design studio Nendo and opened up last December. If you’re interested in passing by, here is the location on Google Maps.
Here is the link to the article on Wallpaper*.
The store was also featured on Design Boom where they have even more pictures of the space.

“the interior bench…has been built with a curve to reduce unwanted eye contact in respect to the islamic custom that advises women to avoid men’s attention.”
Say what now?
What kind of rubbish is that? “Islamic seating plan”, all the women wear hijabs in the pics and men wear dishdashas. It claims young people actually give a damn about Islamic thought which isn’t true. That review was just wrong and represents isis better than it represents that cafe.
it’s a Japanese coffee shop btw. Not local.
Who said it was local?
