After helping Milk & Froth () transition from a food truck to their first brick-and-mortar in downtown Detroit, we teamed up again for their Ann Arbor expansion.

The ASCII-inspired language continues—but here, a new element takes over: a large red wall.

Visible from the street and dominant once inside, the wall becomes both backdrop and organizer—carving out niches for seating and service through openings of varying scale.

Our favorite flavor? Still debating between Black Sesame and Matcha Pistachio.
