Cream Cookie is a ice cream shop and bakery on the popular shopping corridor that runs along Fairfax Ave in midtown Los Angeles. The client asked us to create a storefront that would be distinctive and memorable while easily reproducible. 

In addition to designing the dining and service spaces, Casey Hughes Architects worked with the client to design the bakery and commercial kitchen, obtaining all of the building permits and Los Angeles County Heath Department approvals required for a new restaurant.
