Interior Design: Steampunk Coffee Shop

South Africa's signature coffee chain, Truth, has just redesigned its headquarters, and if you're not a coffee drinker, you may want to consider taking up the habit just for the ambiance.  Haldane Martin has created a steampunk aesthetic for the restaurant that would look at home on the set of a high-end Hollywood flick.  

Metal piping and old machinery give the impression that something extraordinary is brewing behind the counter, and that's not far from the truth.  (See what I did there?)   The space features stripped wooden floors, metal girders, antiques, and over-stuffed booths.  It's like stumbling into your favorite steampunk novel.
