Call me a freak of nature, but I do not drink coffee. Never have, likely never will. But it doesn’t take a coffee drinker to fall truly, madly, deeply in love with Starbucks’ concept store which recently opened in Amsterdam. I’m awestruck! I want, scratch that, I need to be on a plane across the Atlantic right now to see this space for myself in person! As photos typically do not do justice to interior spaces, I can only imagine just how AWESOME this space is in the flesh. It’s so easy to forget that there’s so much beauty in simplicity and natural elements, and this design has embraced and championed that concept throughout. I love it and wish this Starbucks was in my local neighbourhood. I’d consider taking up liquid insomnia for an afternoon here. ;)

I am a coffee *addict* so it stands to reason I would absolutely adore getting a cup here! (I’m assuming it’s not the traditional amsterdam version of a coffeehouse of course…!)

So not fair, right? I’m SO jealous of the folks in Amsterdam who get to experience this place in reality.

I can see myself potentially spending hours in here for reasons other than coffee! Thanks for sharing

All the photos (and video) I’ve seen of it are gorgeous! I haven’t been to Amsterdam since my graduation from uni, so I haven’t been there yet, but if you do happen to hop on a plane to Amsterdam, remember to let me know so we can meet <3

Oh man, if/when I ever get over to The Netherlands, a) I will totally be calling you up IMMEDIATELY, and b) I’ll be dragging you here along with me! Promise me you’ll take pictures and/or tell me all about this place if you ever go!

Holy crap, such an amazing space. I would definitely like to see it in person too, and I’m not a coffee drinker either.

High fives to you, possibly the only other person on the planet who’s not a coffee drinker. ;)
