Goal: To create, from a cold shell, a visually appealing Coffee, Shop, Bar and Grill in a small neighborhood

Challenges: 1) To place many pieces of equipment and a drive thru window in a small space to allow fluid use by the staff and enjoyable use by the public. 2) To overcome the plain feel of the exterior created by the strip mall location.

Success: Bean and Barrel has been a success from it's opening in 2007. Customers often comment on the atmopshpere created by the design and color/decor selection. Bean and Barrel invited Build Ex, Inc back in 2011 to add a brand new kitchen.
