The interiors of the café have been seamlessly blended with its adjoining busy street by adding a beautiful glass facade. To give a luxurious feel of a bar and yet remain true to the concept of being a café, there is a subtle infusion of varying degrees of neutral grey with vibrant colours such as red and green. Tropical plants and artwork interspersed with chic interiors has given Divo a casual yet plush look.
