Third Cafe – AlNarjis

Many cafes invest heavily in either their product or their space; Third Cafe in AlNarjis, Riyadh, commits to both. I built the shoot around the cafe’s natural light conditions from the outset, working through different times to find the version of each area that most honestly reflects how the space is meant to be experienced. The material palette, surfaces, furniture, fixtures, was the subject as much as the spatial composition. Compositions were held to a consistent architectural register throughout, producing a body of work that communicates Third Cafe’s measured, deliberate identity without adding drama or visual noise.
