Paper + Cups Cafe

Manila Bulletin is one of the oldest broadsheet media companies in the Philippines with a 120 year legacy of excellent journalism.

Our team at PINO transformed their lobby into a multipurpose space called Paper + Cup,  which mostly acts as a cafe. The cafe restaurant was designed by PINO to represent not only an independent entity, but also a brand extension of Manila Bulletin as a whole.

Maximizing the area and bringing out its full potential, we were able to create a space not only for rest, comfort and dining, but one that inspires creativity.
