moulin: napa
project details
Moulin is a modern artisan bakery and cafe designed to embody craftsmanship, warmth, and authenticity. Inspired by the precision of traditional European bakeries, the space reflects a balance of raw materials, refined details, and natural light to create an inviting and tactile experience.
The design highlights the heart of the bakery—its open kitchen and stone mill—placing the craft of breadmaking on display. Textured wood, handcrafted tile, and polished concrete form a palette that is both timeless and functional, while subtle lighting enhances the rich tones of freshly baked bread and pastries.
Seamlessly integrating retail and café elements, Moulin fosters a communal atmosphere where customers can engage with the artistry of baking. The result is a space that feels effortless yet intentional, a reflection of the bakery’s commitment to quality, tradition, and innovation.
