Masa

There are plenty of bakeries in Bogotá, but none are as stylish as Masa. In late 2018, the brand opened a new location in the Colombian capital. Large triangular and circular windows cut into concrete walls reveal a warm glow when the sun sets. Studio Cadena, a New York–based firm known for its playful designs, created the 7,500-sq.-ft. space—comprising a restaurant, café, dining area, retail space and bakery—to blend the concepts of interior and exterior. So far, its strategy seems to be working. Customers have been flocking in for quick visits or to spend a whole day snacking on Masa’s treats, which include homemade bread, sandwiches, croissants and—one of its most popular desserts—bread pudding. —Madeline Roache
