Retro-vibe chocolate café designed by 4Space open in Zahia City, Sharjah

‘Donafello’ serves sweet treats in a nod to playful fantasies of a chocolate land

by Séan Thurgood 19 October 2022

With a bright colour scheme that evokes bubblegum, mint, chocolate and fresh strawberries, the tantalising design has been chosen to enamour the customer’s taste buds. With a playful decor throughout, the clients wanted to create an experience of walking into a deconstructed chocolate bar.

The retail space features three varieties of chocolate foundations and a display chiller embedded in the bar counter. Shiny brown balls represent bubbles of chocolate with a rippled mirror ceiling that is reminiscent of melting chocolate encrusted with crepe and waffle toppings.

Throughout the space neon lights provide visual effects and are designed to attract children, teenagers, and Instagram-loving adults. Custom made tables match the style of the area and are formed of a blue body topped with dichroic glass, surrounded by retro-inspired chairs.
