Inatteso Café | Minimal Warmth and Custom Fabrication by Bolt Builds

Bolt Builds designed and fabricated custom interior elements for Inatteso Café in Lower Manhattan, shaping a clean, minimalist space grounded in natural materials and subtle warmth.

The centerpiece of the café is a set of handmade in-house banquettes, crafted with soft curves and tailored detailing to create an inviting place for guests to sit, relax, and linger. These custom pieces pair seamlessly with Concrete Collaborative’s textured backsplash tile, forming a quiet yet refined backdrop defined by complementary tones and tactile depth.

A restrained palette of wood, tile, and soft neutrals keeps the space calm and approachable, while thoughtful material transitions add clarity to the compact layout. Designed for everyday comfort, the interior balances simplicity with intention—resulting in a café environment that feels warm, modern, and effortlessly welcoming.
