美萩市建立于17世纪,具有丰富的文化和社会历史,创造了与西部地区河流文明相协调的繁荣城市的特点。该市至今仍保留着许多法国时期的殖民建筑的古老特征。

My Tho city was established in the 17th century with a rich history of culture and society, which created a characteristic of a prosperous city that is in harmony with the river civilization of the Western area. The city still retains a lot of ancient features of the colonial architecture of the French period.

因此,这也影响了当地人的性格。咖啡馆与一个小规模的私人古董画廊相结合,它位于中心附近的宁静城市,被果园、运河和水系的自然景观所包围。自然、城镇景观和人是这个项目的灵感来源。

Therefore, it also has affected the character of the local people. The coffee shop is combined to a small-scale private antique gallery that is located in a peaceful city near the center and surrounds by the natural landscape of orchards, canals and aquatic systems. Nature, townscape and people are the inspirations of this project.

设计的目的是基于这样的观点:建筑是一个独立的元素,但它也是连接环境中其他组成部分的因素。这一点是非常重要的支点,它使建筑即使在时间流逝的情况下也能持续存在。

The design aim based on the viewpoint that an Architecture is an independent element with context, but it is also the factor connecting other components of the context. This point is really important fulcrum which makes a building still alive sustainably even though time has passed.

因此,设计团队提出了一个空间形式,它是由基本的几何元素组合而成的,这些材料是由当地的老房子拆除后再利用的(如砖、瓦、旧门)。这个解决方案使作品带有建筑土地的精神。此外,夸张的立方体比例与人的大小有关,强调了材料的存在。

Therefore, the design team proposed a spatial form that was a combination of basic geometric elements created by the source of on-site materials those were reused from the old local houses removed (such as brick, tile, old door). This solution made the work carry the spirit of construction land. Beside, exaggeration of the cube proportions in relation to human size emphasized the existence of materials.

整个项目由3个房子组成:主要的饮用咖啡,一个小型的多功能和一个辅助性的,其平面形状是基本的几何形状。它们围绕着中心湖,通过中间的道路连接。主饮品咖啡馆使用了一个大的瓦片屋顶形状的不对称的矩形金字塔的地壳,漂浮在湖面上,它被玻璃墙包围,以释放所有的视野。

The whole project consists of 3 houses: the main drinking coffee, a small multi-function and an auxiliary one whose floor plan shapes are basic geometries. They are surrounding the central lake and connecting by the middle way. The main drinking coffee house uses a large tile roof shaped asymmetrical frustum of a rectangular pyramid floating on the lake, it is surrounding by glass walls in order to liberate all views.

内部空间被分为3个部分:方形、圆形和三角形的楼层区域,标高较低,这使得用户的视野与外面的水面水平相同。屋顶在中间打了一个洞,让光线进入柜台前的位置,这个洞被蒙德里安绘画的薄布覆盖,当阳光穿过时,在地板上形成了印花效果。勒-柯布西耶的水平窗带原则被放大到三个外墙,用于连接自然景观和消除内部-外部的界限。

The interior space is divided into 3 parts: square, circular and triangular floor areas with lower elevations, which makes user views are the same as the outside water surface level. The roof has punched a hole in the center to get light into the position in front of the counter, the hole is covered by the thin fabric of Mondrian painting to create a print effect on the floor when sunlight passes through. Le Corbusier’s principle of horizontal window tape is amplified into three facades for connecting with the natural landscape and erasing the inner-outer boundary.

自然通风的方法要归功于玻璃水平窗系统,结合设计成与水面相似的低高度的窗户百叶窗,以获得来自湖面的凉风并调节咖啡馆所有空间的温度。以上提出的地板调整方案使坐在那里享受咖啡的客人始终感到新鲜。此外,在场地内保留整个自然树木和运河,使建筑部分交织在一个原始的绿色景观中,从而保持了建筑核心区的清洁空气。

The method of natural ventilation thanks to the glass horizontal window system combined with the window shutters those are designed low elevation similar to the water surface for getting cool breeze from the lake and regulating the temperature in all space of the coffee house. The floor cote adjustment proposal presented above makes guests sitting to enjoy coffee always feel fresh. Moreover, keeping entire natural trees and canals at the site makes architectural parts be intertwined in an original green landscape, which maintains the clean air in the building core.
