The experience and application design of the kiosk for the upper segment chocolate series 1927, developed by Nestle in honor of the first chocolate factory opened in Turkey, was designed by Wangan. The structure, which holds a chocolate production area in a minimal and functional form, also refers to the film "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory".
The portable kiosk, designed to be placed and operated in different areas at specific times, was created based on the idea that visitors will have the experience of creating their own chocolate. The structure, which was first seen at the Akasya shopping center in Istanbul, offers the opportunity to follow the creation process of a chocolate bar in several steps. Wangan is also responsible for the design and manufacture of all the machinery of the kiosk, where the chocolates, made from the ingredients of the area, are packaged and served over a special belt.
In the design of the building, the dark wood tones, reminiscent of chocolate, and the intensive use of walnut wood and brass materials have a line that emphasizes the quality and weight of the brand. The carousel-like shape of the roof, designed to make the project more entertaining and lively, gives the impression that the kiosk is displayed in a fairground.
