Space Invaders

Finally, the much awaited college barkada get together had happened!

August 27, one stormy Saturday afternoon at our friend's much talked about Subspace Coffee House. To gather my Interior Design barkada is such a production number to organize. Everyone has their own priorities, issues and situations. Malayong lugar, may work, may kid's activity program, may raket, umuulan... haaay!

Reserved. There's no stopping us now!

Since I arrived early, I had the chance to "interview" Wilmer regarding the coffee house. Two years ago, Wilmer and Thor established a furniture shop, the Space Encounters. Many passers-by have mistakenly thought of it as a coffee shop, as well as getting requests from their clients to put up a snack bar in it. So when they decided to open one, luckily there's this place... a walking distance away from Space Encounters. Dalawang tumbling lang, promise! Thus, Subspace Coffee House came to be, happily serving coffee... hehehe. Eventually, they introduced pastas and sandwiches, to cater lunch and dinner for the tenants of the building and nearby offices.

We can't get enough of taking photos so just check it out...

The coffee house showcased some of their furnitures from Space Encounters

Displaying lots of interesting collectibles sourced abroad and given by family and friends

My daughter's first time to hold an analog rotary phone.

This cake gave me the reason to return. Yummy!!!

No smoking... Like!

Seoul milk for a non-coffee drinker like me, but you have to try their bestseller Sweet Purple Potato latte and Peanut Butter latte

Wilmer Lopez. Thor wasn't around at that time, recuperating from an operation. Get well soon, Thor!

So proud and so excited of the shop, we have invaded it! Anyway, they are used to it. It has been featured in various TV shows, used for pictorials and styling for some magazines.

Custom-made furnitures in bright colors and playful prints.

Oriental pop-culture/Korean inspired knick-knacks

Vintage clocks, telephones, posters and lamps.
