The Quiet Hour

The Quiet Hour is a café and coworking space designed for people who want community without social pressure. Customers can choose their interaction level using a simple color-coded system, enjoy quiet workspaces, and participate in low-pressure events such as silent book clubs and study nights. Revenue comes from food and beverage sales, memberships, workspace passes, and premium quiet rooms. The concept targets students, remote workers, introverts, and anyone seeking a calmer alternative to traditional cafés.
