01 · Brief
Keep it.
The reflex with a heritage room is to lift it. The instruction was the opposite.

The site
Kept, not reinvented.
Kopi and teh, fresh-baked buns, cream horns, sugee cake. The group reopened the corner in 2021, left everything a regular would notice, and rebuilt everything behind it.
The work
Brief, concept, result.
02 · Concept
Plumbing, not recipe
Everything a guest sees stayed. The kitchen, the ordering and the loyalty programme are new.
03 · Standing
Still a kopitiam
Judged by whether the regulars still recognise breakfast.
You do not renovate a habit.
