DESIGN
Calii Love’s refined, minimalistic design, and open environment was built by TYPE-D Living and offers a counter service experience in a cozy space that blends laid back beachy vibes in a city setting. Artwork and murals by Kayla Pongrac surround the space with surfboard artwork done by Sarah Skrlj. With a lively teal exterior and vibrant “Aloha” tiled art scattered neatly on the front door step, it invites locals in to eat good, feel good, and do good. Designed to offer a warm and hospitable atmosphere, the interior is welcoming with pops of bold accents of colour and animated art throughout the space promoting health and wellness, inside-out. Inspired by a Californian and Hawaiian way of living – surfboards, wooden benches, tropical cushions and coffee table books bring it all together effortlessly. The space seats 65 people in total sitting and standing.
