Okkio是一家特色咖啡店,位于Duy Tan街的一条小巷中。它占据了一栋古老的法国殖民时期的别墅,是附近为数不多的半独立式别墅中的真实半栋。Duy Tan深情地回忆起我们亲爱的西贡的记忆。经历了城市历史的起伏,百年的伞花树在人行道上高高耸立。幸运的是,别墅的状况超过了我们对时间影响的预期,尽管它已经相当老化。

Okkio is a specialty coffee shop located in a small alley on Duy Tan Street. It occupies an old French colonial villa, an authentic half of a semidetached villa among a few that remain in the neighborhood. Duy Tan fondly recalls the memory of our beloved Saigon. Surviving the ups and downs of the city history, century-old parashorea trees stand tall along the pavements. Fortunately, the villa condition exceeds our expectation of time impact despite being quite aged.

Okkio在意大利语中是 “眼睛 “的意思。Okkio认为自己是一个观察者,在未知的地方,在将要发生的事情和已经过去的事情之间。Okkio空间由前面的别墅、后面的一个新的两层楼房和一个花园组成。所有这些都由一条封闭的走道连接。

Okkio means “eye” in Italian. Okkio considers himself as an observer, in the nowness, in between what is to happen and what has been gone. Okkio space consists of the front villa, a new two-story block at the back and a garden. All are connected by an enclosed walkway.

这个空间是一个新旧之间的持续对话。它通过定义明确的边界而形成对比,或通过模糊的连接点而使之同质化。每一个路口都有对话:在建筑和背景之间的分界处;通过从旧别墅到新街区的走道;在暴露的旧灰色实心砖墙和沙子纹理的新墙之间;在破损的窗框、门框以及旧阳台扶手的原始镀锌钢的替代处;甚至是模糊了 “新 “材料定义的不锈钢表面。

The space is a continuing dialogue between the old and the new. It contrasts by defining clear borders, or homogenizes by blurring joints. There is a conversation at every junction: at the demarcation between buildings and context; through the walkway coming from the old villa to the new block; between exposed old-grey-solid brick wall and sand texture painted new wall; at the replacement of raw galvanized steel for broken window frames, door frames as well as the old balcony handrails; even the stainless-steel surfaces that blur the definition of ‘new’ materials.

不锈钢和Cooper酿造的酒吧占据了别墅一楼的大部分面积。它位于主入口的左侧。混凝土地板和踢脚线,应用于整个别墅,类似于原来楼梯的混凝土台阶。上到二楼,人们立刻被自然状态的材料所吸引:混凝土地板和踢脚线,米白色沙子质地的油漆和裸露的旧灰色实心砖墙,原始镀锌钢,抛光不锈钢,黑色皮革和单色饰面木材。Okkio通过用一面巨大的镜子突出现有的珍贵的木制屋顶结构来提醒自己的历史。

The stainless-steel and cooper brew bar occupies most of the villa first floor. It situates to the left from the main entrance. Concrete floor and skirting, applied to the whole villa, resemble the concrete steps of the original staircase. Coming upstairs to the second floor, one is immediately welcomed by natural states of materials: concrete floor and skirting, off-white sand texture painted and exposed old-grey-solid brick walls, raw galvanized steel, polished stainless steel, black leather and monochrome finish wood. Okkio reminds itself about own history by highlighting the precious existing wooden roof structure with a giant mirror.

花园是老别墅和新街区之间的一个缓冲区。走道将其分为两部分:一个天井和一个院子。沿着走道的玻璃百叶窗巧妙地界定了内部和外部。它们吸收、反射光线和周围的环境。红色的环氧树脂地板将人们的注意力从前面吸引到后面。在二楼的后面,视野突然变宽。它覆盖了整个花园和周围的环境。

The garden is a buffer zone between the old villa and the new block. The walkway divides it into two parts: a patio and a courtyard. Glass louvers along the walkway subtly define the inside and the outside. They absorb, reflect both light and the surroundings. The red epoxy floor draws one’s attention from front to back. At the back of second floor, the view is suddenly widened. It covers the entire garden and the surroundings.

鉴于Okkio专业咖啡的核心价值,手工艺是整个空间的一个关键元素。当地优秀的手工艺在整个最小的室内细节中得到了精美的体现。

Craftsmanship is a key element across the space in light of Okkio’s core value of specialty coffee. The excellent local craftsmanship is beautifully reflected throughout the smallest interior details.
