About The Entry

Because the store is located in an old community and old street, I hope to retain the historical sense of the original wall and the original cement cast floor. The collision between our new materials and the original historical texture will produce different sparks.

In terms of structure, we hope to be able to distinguish and integrate with the surrounding stores. The horseshoe stone paving is the same material as the sidewalk road outside the street community, and then the architectural technique is used.

Birch boards and metal plates are used for matching and interspersing.

In terms of space design, we have divided the area into three layers. The first area faces the street outside to attract more people to the design of the door head. There are also 24-hour seats at the door.

After entering the door, we have made a surround seating area in the second area, and made a flip-top storage under the seat, so that more people can sit here to chat and watch the projection.

The third area is the staff operation area, and the semi-open operating table can communicate with customers.

Highlights worth mentioning, or key points that have been specially designed, difficulties encountered during the design process, ideas for matching space soft furnishings, whether special materials are used, etc.

The special design point is to retain the original cast floor and structural load-bearing columns (key points, photos are taken)

We use a zoned design in the space, and the elevated and sunken design is used to divide the space (key points)

For materials, we use horseshoe stones commonly seen on the street, so that the outdoor street scenes are well integrated into the interior. For wood grain, we use birch boards for production, without additional paint processing

The materials selected are relatively environmentally friendly
