Bunna Café Bushwick Build Out

Coltivare is an Ithaca-based restaurant and culinary school-in-one, committed to promoting farm-to-table-dining and supporting local farmers.

As a reward for having weathered the pandemic, Ithaca-based coffee shop Gimme! Coffee, is brewing up a whole menu of welcome design changes for their State Street location. RDB designed, and is currency fabricating, custom curved “floating” wood countertops, benches, stools, and other furniture elements, the second phase of a larger renovation to enhance the in-person experience of this beloved cafe. Earlier in the year, RDB bored picture-window openings in the location’s center wall, helping to double the cafe’s seating capacity.

The owner of Old Goat Gear Exchange, a beloved outdoor and sports apparel shop in downtown Ithaca, wanted his next business to blend his love of cycling and sports with another one of his passions: craft brews. Bike Bar is peppered with cycling-themed materials and featured a bar top with inlaid bike gears. Rocco Design + Build demo'd the space, built custom cabinetry, shelving, and furniture using salvaged and reclaimed wood.
