It all starts with a trip with friends to Japan
Born from a shared passion for design, minimal aesthetics, and cultural exploration, Concrete Caffeine has evolved into a boutique studio dedicated to curating and sourcing lifestyle brands with intention.
What began as a love for discovering inspiring spaces and crafted objects has grown into a service for those seeking to bridge cultures and markets. We connect emerging, design-led brands with concept stores, buyers, and unique venues across Europe and Japan.
With backgrounds spanning design, culture, and brand strategy, we bring together creative intuition and market expertise. Our mission is simple, to uncover what is rare, to refine it with clarity, and to deliver it in ways that create lasting impact.
Concrete Caffeine is not just about scouting, it is about creating meaningful connections between brands, places, and people.
MEET THE TEAM
We are Lucie and Sarah, co-founders of Concrete Caffeine, a boutique studio specializing in emerging lifestyle brands and intentional design.
Lucie, originally from France, is passionate about art, design, and architecture. Having lived in Sweden, Switzerland, and now England, she has developed a strong international perspective. She has collaborated with prestigious clients in France, and her work is deeply inspired by Japanese and Scandinavian design, where minimalism and attention to detail are central.
Sarah, from England, brings over 12 years of experience in sales and marketing, combined with a strong passion for design, travel, and Japanese culture. She speaks Japanese and travels regularly to the country, deepening our understanding of its cultural and aesthetic codes.
Together, we travel frequently between Europe and Japan to uncover unique brands and spaces. With Concrete Caffeine, we build a bridge between cultures and markets, offering brands and buyers a curated, strategic, and inspiring selection.
