这块地离达尔特市中心3公里，坐落在山坡上，向山谷望去似乎没有尽头，没有任何障碍。第一次访问该地时，我们只是静静地站在那里，从未来的咖啡店所在的地方欣赏这奇妙的风景。
The land plot, 3km from the center of Dalt city, sits on the hillside, offering a seemingly endless view toward the valleys, without any obstacle. The first time visiting the site, we just stood still, admiring the marvelous landscape from the place where the future coffee shop would be.
这正是这个景观的形象，也是我们设计的起点。屋顶的形状和建筑块的交错布局再现了起伏的山丘逐渐消失在山谷的薄雾中的形象。这种布局也创造了内部和外部之间的过渡空间，让游客在美丽的日子里享受高原的纯净空气。
This was exactly the image of this landscape who initiated our design. The image of the undulating hills faded away into the mist of the valley was reproduced by the roof’s shapes and the staggered layout of the building blocks. This layout also created the transitional spaces between inside and outside, allowing the visitor to enjoy the pure air of the highland in a beautiful day.
另一个触发设计的形象是逐渐出现在城市里的当地温室。撇开这些温室对环境的影响不谈，我们喜欢重现它们在夜间亮起的形象，这些形象吸引了许多游客来到大叻。这就是为什么我们选择聚碳酸酯作为建筑的外壳。这种材料，在必要的地方与玻璃相结合，以优先考虑景观，在夜间为建筑创造 “亮化温室 “的效果。
Another image who triggered the design is the local greenhouses, gradually appeared inside the city. Putting aside the impacts of those greenhouses to the environment, we liked to reproduce the images of them lighten up in the night, the images that draw many of visitors to Da Lat. That’s why polycarbonate was chosen to be the envelope of the building. This material, combining with glass where necessary to prioritize the view to the landscape, create the effect of “lighten up greenhouse” for the building, in the night.
该项目的设计阶段花了两年多时间。这段时间足以让当地政府对建筑政策的意外变化对项目产生影响。最初的想法是一个三区的咖啡店，为游客提供一个实验性的旅程，从拥挤的街道开始，在树林深处的一个开放空间结束，与自然完全相连。最后，只有1区获得了建筑许可，80%的外部区域被切断了。这对我们这些项目的建筑师和客户来说，确实是一个很大的遗憾，他们真的想创造一个具有突出的空间质量的咖啡店。
The design stage of the project took over 2 years. The time was long enough for the unexpected changes in building policies of the local authority to take effect on the project. The original idea was a 3-zones coffee store, offering to the visitors an experiment journey, started on the crowded street and ended at an open a space deep down in the wood, totally connected with the nature. Finally, only zone 1 got the building permission, with 80% of the outside areas were cut-off. This was really a big regret of us, the architects of the project, and of the clients, who really wanted to create a coffee store with a stand-out quality of spaces.
