空间 “在咖啡行业的作用正在从单纯的咖啡消费场所演变为表达每个品牌的方向和身份的阶段。

The role of “space” in the coffee industry is evolving from mere place where coffee is consumed to the stage of expressing the direction and identity of each brand.

这样的演变对于百货公司容纳和展示各种生活方式起到了重要作用。乐天百货公司最近在韩国新住宅区的焦点城市东滩开业,为这个生活方式品牌 “mtl “提供了238平方米的植物空间,同时在许多其他零售店的一侧有一个宽阔的露台。”mtl “包括三个项目:一个使用柏林bonanza咖啡豆的咖啡馆,以及一个精选商店和一个研讨会休息室。负责其空间设计的Stof工作室,打算将该空间作为一个具有各种价值的统一品牌来阅读,而在各项目之间没有特定的层次。

Such evolution plays an important role for department stores to contain and display various lifestyles. Lotte Department Store, recently opened in Dongtan, the city in the spotlight as a new residential area in South Korea, has a 238 square metered botanic space for this lifestyle brand “mtl” along with a wide terrace on one side of many other retail shops. “mtl” consists of three programs: a cafe that uses coffee beans from Berlin’s bonanza coffee, as well as a select shop and a seminar lounge. Stof, the studio in charge of its spatial design, intended for the space to be read as one united brand with various values without a specific hierarchy among the programs.

连接性。捷径被安排在整个空间中,以便在一个独特的流线型结构中实现项目之间的自然过渡,通过它,游客可以看到从公共空间到员工空间,以及从内部到露台的分层景观。周围的各种植物,从小盆栽到大树,诱导人们的目光移向露台上的巨大花园。安装在天花板上的网格结构变化到窗户和架子等每个部件中,强调了空间的连通性,同时这些交叉的形状元素也被应用到咖啡吧家具、椅子和桌子上。桦木胶合板和铜制成的家具的装饰材料使各元素之间达到统一。

Connectivity. Shortcuts are arranged throughout the space for the natural transition between programs within a unique streamlined structure, through which visitors can see layered landscapes from public spaces to staff spaces, and from inside to the terrace. Various plants around them, ranging from small pots to large trees, induce people’s eyes to move to the huge garden on the terrace. The grid structure installed on the ceiling changes into each component such as windows and shelves, emphasizing the connectivity of the space, while these intersecting shaped elements are also applied to coffee bar furniture, chairs, and tables. The finishing materials for furniture made of birch plywood and copper give unity between elements.

多样性。摆放在空间中的家具采取各种形式,在每个项目中发挥适当的功能,如带有挂钩的桌子,用于悬挂在百货公司购买的物品,宽敞的长椅让人联想到酒店的休息室,以及窗边的高桌,用于有效的沟通和教育。此外,安装在咖啡吧后面的trivision是一个框架,它不断地转换为不同的图像,反映了mtl的方向,它追求各种价值,如素食主义、生态友好和最小的生活。

Diversity. Furniture placed in space takes various forms to function appropriately in each program, such as tables with hooks to hang items purchased at department stores, spacious bench seats reminiscent of hotel lounges, and high tables by windows for efficient communication and education. In addition, the trivision installed behind the coffee bar is a frame that is continuously converted into different images and reflects the direction of mtl, which pursues various values such as veganism, eco-friendliness, and minimal life.
