The Boy & The Bear
Curator’s note
Casa Vieja is the brand's homage to the rural Colombian home, set among Litt Concept House's antiques: adobe-textured walls, clay and sand tones, finishes left matte and imperfect so they age like the houses they quote. Daylight comes down through a glass-grid ceiling into a tall room where the seating is spread out and meant for staying.
A mocha and chai blend, one of the shop's top sellers on the drink menu.
The coffee
Espresso and pour-overs of the house Colombian-first roast, made at the brand's own Los Angeles roastery, with matcha and fresh pastries in the case. Origin-named retail bags (Bolivia: Finca Rosita, Peru: Juihuay) sit on the shelf.

The room
Adobe walls, aged whites, and black steel under a glass-grid ceiling, with light-mint walls keeping the room fresh and antiques all around. Wear is the design language: the surfaces are meant to show their years.
