The Crystal Farm Cafe project is a modern space that not only offers delicious food, but also creates a unique atmosphere for recreation and development. This is a place where aesthetics and functionality mix, harmoniously combining high-tech solutions and natural interaction.
‘Crystal Farm’ got its name due to two aspects – a glass greenhouse and a farm concept.
1. The glass structure of the greenhouse based on a metal frame creates an internal space that shines from the sun's rays like crystal. The light is refracted through the glass, creates soft iridescence and shine inside, which give a feeling of airy illusion of spaciousness and beauty.
2. The farm is a place where plants are grown and animals are cared for.
A special feature of the project is a glass greenhouse that permeates the entire space and unites the elements of the building with each other. This design allows sunlight to penetrate inside, making the place spacious, bright and cozy.
Inside, you can grow various types of plants, as if in real fields, only inside the building. Can you imagine how interesting it will be to see how plants grow, especially if it's cold or rainy outside?
Visitors of the ‘Crystal Farm’ do not just order food, they participate in its creation – they grow the ingredients themselves, which will later be used for cooking. Visitors will be able to walk between the rows of beds and take a closer look at the plants, take care of them, enjoy nature. Thanks to this, they experience all the way from planting seeds to serving, deepening their experience in the world of agriculture and nature.
But ‘Crystal Farm’ is not only about lunch and caring for plants. It is also a place where you can develop, spend time with your family, play sports, relax in the fresh air and interact with animals.
As a result, the Crystal Farm Cafe project is a place where gastronomy, nature and education merge, offering visitors a deep and unique experience that allows not only to taste delicious dishes, but also to unlock their potential, learn new things and enjoy bright moments in life.
