ARCHIEE的最新项目,位于中国成都的阿拉比卡%专卖店的设计,刚刚开业。它位于新的成都常规购物中心的院子里。

ARCHIEE’s latest project, the design of the % Arabica store located in Chengdu, China, just opened. It is located on of the courtyards of the new Chengdu Regular shopping center.

% Arabica是一个日本咖啡店品牌,以其白色简约设计的店铺而闻名,在至少17个国家提供高品质的咖啡。这些散布在世界各地的地标性建筑,不仅考虑到了当地文化和历史的独特性,而且还在城市中创造了新的交通流。

% Arabica is a Japanese coffee shop brand,renowned for its white minimalist design stores, providing high-quality coffee in at least 17 different countries. Those landmarks, scattered all around the world, not only take into consideration the singularities of local culture and history, but also create new traffic flows in cities.

ARCHIEE,一家位于巴黎的机构,在中国设计了一个日本项目,符合全球化的阿拉比卡咖啡文化%。这个项目将日本、法国和中国的文化结合起来,将中国的景观、日本的结构和极简设计以及巴黎的咖啡文化融合在一起。我们面临的挑战是创造一个空间,丰富消费者在各个阶段的体验,鼓励他们在城市和城市景观的环境中享受咖啡。

ARCHIEE, a Paris based agency, designed a Japanese project in China conforming to the globalized coffee culture of % Arabica. This project unites Japanese, French and Chinese cultures, by blending Chinese landscapes, Japanese structural and minimal design and the Paris café culture. The challenge was to create a space that would enrich the consumer’s experience at all stages and encourage them to enjoy their coffee in the surroundings of the city and its urban landscapes.

空间设计呈现了一个水平构图,在上下两部分之间有一个建议的镜像反射。这种反射式的配置是对中国传统景观的现代诠释,即地标性建筑被反射到水中。在成都,人们可以边喝茶或咖啡边欣赏安顺桥和它在锦江上的倒影。

The spatial design presents a horizontal composition with a suggested mirrored reflection between the upper and lower section. This reflected configuration is a contemporary interpretation of traditional Chinese landscapes where landmarks are reflected onto water. In Chengdu, people can admire the Anshun Bridge and its reflection on the Jin River while sipping tea or coffee.

为了实现这个想法,我们在入口和服务台之间创造了一个突出的缓冲区。这个雕塑般的元素成为设计的精髓。它的构成可以与城市外部元素相联系,如隧道、桥梁甚至是滑板坡道。 为了创造这个独特的像隧道一样的内部装置,考虑其稳定性和可制造性是很重要的。我们使用了日本工程,使其尽可能地轻,这是一个焊接的9毫米钢板结构,表面光滑无缝。通过这个钢铁隧道的感觉变成了一种具有独特声音和感觉的沉浸式体验。

To achieve this idea, we created a prominent buffer zone between the entrance and the service counter. This sculptural element became the essence of the design. Its composition can be associated with urban exterior elements such as a tunnel, a bridge and even a skateboard ramp. In order to create this unique tunnel like interior fixture, it was important to consider its stability and manufacturability. We used Japanese engineering to make it as light as possible, a welded 9mm steel plate structure with a smooth seamless surface. The sensation of passing through this steel tunnel turns into an immersive experience with a unique sound and feeling.

此外,这种形式促进了商店和庭院之间的流通,使游客能够持续流动。内部和外部的平滑过渡,灵感来自于巴黎露台咖啡馆的热闹气氛和他们的座位安排,客户在那里观看路人。坡道的不连续性不仅增强了镜面的构成,也使坐在柜台后面的客户能够重塑这种关系。

Furthermore, this form facilitates the circulation between the shop and the courtyard enabling a continuous flow of visitors. The smooth interior and exterior transition, was inspired by the lively atmosphere of the Parisian terrasse cafes and their seating arrangement, where clients watch the passersby.The discontinuity of the ramp not only enhance the mirrored composition but also enable to recreate this relation for the customers seating behind the counters.

为了反映阿拉比卡%的日本极简主义理念,我们精心选择了无缝材料,如阿拉比卡%的柜台和外墙的标志性可丽耐材料,以及用弹性油性涂料制作的隧道的白色石膏装饰。玻璃外墙被设计成尽可能的不可见。总的来说,这些材料将项目和谐地统一起来,提供了一个以其简单性和流动性而出众的设计。

In order to reflect % Arabica’s Japanese minimalist philosophy, seamless materials were carefully selected, such as the iconic % Arabica Corian finish of the counters and façade, as well as a white plaster finish of the tunnel, created with a elastic oil-based paint. The Glass facade was designed to be as invisible as possible. Overall these materials unify the project harmoniously offering a design that outstands by its simplicity and fluidity.
