The dog sculpture in this Kiev pastry shop is not a Koons (but sure looks like one)
The Ukrainian architecture firm 2B.Group have just finished The Cake, a modern French pastry shop in the center of Kiev. It took just four months from the first sketches to the open day rehearsal to finish the shop – discussing the name for the design took longer. Eventually, they reconciled by calling it ‘indie’ design.
The 80m2 main hall boasts a wide diversity in images and forms due to the fact that most design elements were handcrafted. The real eye-catcher, however, is that Jeff Koons reminiscent sculpture with an inscription that reads: “Only looks like a Koons dog, but it is not”.
