Nagasawa Coffee是一家咖啡烘焙商,位于日本东北部东北地区的盛冈市。业主决定将他们的商店搬到更大的空间,以适应他们新的20世纪60年代的老式烘焙机。他们希望新店有一个开放的工作室空间。
作为主要的空间元素,Arii Irie Architects设计了一个6米长,1.5米宽的水磨石桌。它既可以作为桌子,也可以是活动桌面,其中放置未烘焙,已烘焙和带包装的咖啡豆,实时展示烘焙的过程。桌子的高度保持较低,以便相对于2.8米高的天花板降低视线的高度。结果,桌子的比例造成了模糊的存在。由于它的长度,高度使它看起来像讲台或舞台,或跑道,但由于它在每一侧之间产生距离,它也发挥着隔断的作用。
像长泽咖啡这样的小商店在盛冈等省级城市的城市文化场景中发挥着重要作用。

Nagasawa Coffee is a coffee roaster located in Morioka, a city in the Tohoku region in northeastern Japan. The owners decided to move their shop to a larger space to fit in their new 1960s vintage roaster. Their vision of the new shop was an open workshop space.
As the main spatial element, Arii Irie Architects designed a 6 meter long, 1.5 meter wide terrazzo table. It is intended as both a table to sit at and an active tabletop where unroasted, roasted, and packaged beans are placed altogether, showcasing the live sequence of the roasting process. The height of the table is kept low, in order to lower the eyelevel in relation to the 2.8 meter high ceiling. As a result, the proportion of the table creates a vague presence. The height makes it seem something like a podium or stage, or a runway because of its length, but it is also like a wall because of the distance it creates between each side.
Small shops like Nagasawa Coffee play a significant role in the urban cultural scene in a provincial city like Morioka. As much as an interior element, the large table is designed as a piece of urban furniture
