Option Coffee Bar位于泰国乌隆塔尼的市中心。它的土地面积有限,可以从主要街道直接进入。它有三个主要功能,即咖啡馆、餐厅和酒吧,在一个空间里具有分时功能;早上是咖啡馆/面包店和健康食品餐厅,晚上则是手工啤酒吧。

Option Coffee Bar is located at the city center of Udonthani, Thailand. It has a limited land area which can be approached from main street directly. There are three primary functions which are café, restaurant, and bar, together in one space with time-sharing functions; café / bakery and healthy food restaurant in the morning, while using as a craft-beer bar in the evening.

既然是分时,这个咖啡馆的体量和分区设计就是为了适应这两种对比功能而设计的。这里有两层楼,第一层是咖啡馆和吧台,夹层只提供顾客的座位,根据建筑规范、规则和条例,这些座位适合在一个长方形的功能箱中。 为了最大限度地增加座位数,需要一个开放的和灵活的座位。此外,在夹层中使用了松散的家具,以使空间灵活地成为一个临时活动或艺术展示的场所。

Since it is a time-sharing, massing and zoning design of this café was created in the way to suit these both contrast functions. There are two floors, the first floor with café and counter bar, and the mezzanine floor for only customers’ seats, which fit in a rectangular function box, by concerning building codes, rules, and regulations. In order to maximize the number of seats, an open-plan and flexible seating is needed. Furthermore, Loose furniture is used at a mezzanine floor in order to flexi the space to be a temporary event or an art showcase.

简单的白色盒子被创造出来,以显示与环境的对比,同时,关注里面的艺术元素。这使得它更容易吸引周围人的目光,同时通过使用所有的黑色和白色材料产生 “简单不同 “的氛围。

Simple white box was created to show contrast from the context, together with, focusing on art elements inside. This makes it is easier to catch the eyes from people around the site, while generate ‘simply different’ atmosphere by using all black and white materials.

这个白色盒子的一个主要特点是有两种类型的空隙,即 “透明 “和 “半透明”。半透明的是正面,由双层透明的聚碳酸酯制成,创造了光线的变化。白天,它允许自然阳光从外面照射到里面,作为咖啡馆,而晚上,作为酒吧,它可以从里面创造出多色照明的色彩效果。在时间轴上,它通过改变情感来唤起顾客的感觉。

A major plain of this white box comes together with 2 types of voids, which are ‘transparent’ and ‘translucent’. A translucent one which is the front façade, made of double layer of clear-colour polycarbonate which creates variation of light. It allows natural sunlight from outside to inside during daytime as for café, while creates colouring effect from multi-colour lighting from inside during nighttime as a bar. It arouses customers’ sensation by changing emotion during timeline.
