The Design

About Ludan Coffee Roast

Ludan is the interior design of a small coffee roastery. The space measures 16 square meters and is cut into a multi-sided bevel, so interlacing axes guide the vision of visitors. The bar is shaped as a triangle and placed in the middle of the room, matching the axes of the slanted front door and forming a circular route. The shelves behind the bar are arranged in a gradient, the metal table is composed of two folded triangles, and the numbers on the wall are made of punched-plate steel. The open layout creates spaces within a space.

Inspiration: The slanting design of the front door lets the passengers on the west side see the visual Identity wall more clearly, it also averts the reflection of the glass, preventing eye contact of the indoor customers and the pedestrians.
Since usually only the couple would be in the shop, the floorplan is designed openly. The triangle bar is set in the middle of the space, forming a toroidal circulation, so when the roaster is working in the roasting place, the customers can shop freely in the space.
Project Duration: The project was finished in February, 2020 in Douliu City, Yunlin County 640, Taiwan (R.O.C.).
