ACRD was appointed as architect for the redesign of Starbucks Werribee following significant fire damage to the original café, using the rebuild as an opportunity to reimagine the site with a stronger sense of warmth, clarity, and community connection.

The design captures Starbucks’ global identity through familiar forms and materials, while refining spatial planning and customer flow to create a more welcoming, intuitive environment that supports both in-store and drive-thru experiences, reinforcing the café’s role as a comfortable neighbourhood destination.
