overtreders W hangs orange rail above hangop dutch café

‘hangop’,  the name of a café designed by overtreders W, translates to ‘hang up’ and at the same time, is a dessert originating from the netherlands. the name is the concept, and this has been applied to the pared back interior which in turn, has provided a neutral background for the installation of an overhead rail that visually connects the two rooms of the café together.

with a low budget, overtreders W upcycled the furniture seen within the eatery. the second hand tables and chairs, the walls, floor, bar and stage were all painted in a vibrant orange by volunteers from the local arts center. an upper platform provides an alternative and more casual seating option. painted in orange, the criss-crossing rail system adds a playful and vibrant element to the interior, while serving as the lighting, provides ledges for plants and also hooks to hang ingredients over the bar.

bagels, cured sausages, scamorza affumicata and dried herbs hang from the rail
