Tucked away in Madrid, the newest addition to the Alma Nomad family, cafe designed by Plantea Estudio, unfolds as a quiet study in warmth and restraint.

The space carries the studio’s signature precision—spacious yet intimate, minimal yet inviting. Soft wooden accents anchor the interiors, filtering light into an amber glow that shifts throughout the day, casting quiet rhythms across textured surfaces.

Every detail is carefully calibrated, from the grain of the wood to the raw tactility of stone and the cool weight of concrete underfoot. The design is stripped of excess yet never feels austere—there’s warmth in the way materials interact, in the balance of openness and enclosure, in the stillness that lingers in the air.

A thoughtful addition to Madrid’s coffee landscape, it shapes a different kind of experience—one that slows the pace, sharpens the senses, and transforms a simple moment into something quietly immersive.

Plantea Estudio, known for its refined approach to materiality and spatial harmony, brings a sensitivity to each project that balances simplicity with depth, creating spaces that resonate beyond their form.
