The Design
About Baffi 주요 기능: 레스토랑
Baffi 레스토랑은 라틴 아메리카 최대의 꽃 공원인 Matria Parque de Flores 내부에 위치해 있습니다. 이 프로젝트는 기존 지형을 따르도록 개발되어 건물을 부분적으로 경관 속에 매립했습니다. 이러한 접근 방식은 시각적 영향을 줄이고 건축과 자연 사이의 긴밀한 연결을 만들어 호수, 정원, 그리고 주변 언덕의 전망을 제공합니다. 그 구조는 자연 소재와 패시브 디자인 전략을 활용하여 편안함을 제공하고 에너지 소비를 줄입니다. 그 결과는 부지를 존중하고 방문객의 경험을 향상시키는 기능적인 공간입니다.

- Production Technology
- The design was developed through an iterative process combining digital modeling and on-site adaptations. Materials were sourced locally to minimize environmental impact, with a focus on concrete fabrication techniques adapted to the region. Sustainability guided every step, from preserving the site’s natural topography to implementing passive environmental strategies. The project also involved training local workers, ensuring long-term benefits for the community and the built environment.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge was balancing sustainability with feasibility. We navigated material limitations, local regulations, and budget constraints while ensuring environmental impact reduction. Socially, integrating community needs required extensive research and engagement. Technologically, adapting passive strategies to varied climates demanded innovative solutions. Overcoming these obstacles led to a resilient, efficient, and community-driven design.
- Research
- The research focused on sustainable architecture, aiming to integrate design with environmental responsibility. Using case studies and site analysis, we examined materials, climate impact, and user experience. Data was collected through field studies and expert consultations. Insights led to passive strategies that reduce energy consumption. The findings influence real-world design, promoting eco-conscious solutions that benefit both businesses and communities.
- Inspiration
- The project was born from the dream of the Piazza family. Upon realizing the magnitude of this endeavor and what it would take to bring it to life, this dream became our dream. It was necessary to train and professionalize hundreds of residents to achieve this goal. A total of 250 people were mobilized for the single purpose of planting flowers. Residents of this small town acquired new skills and found a renewed sense of purpose, proud of the strength of their city.
- Project Duration
- The project started in July 2019 in Sao Francisco de Paula, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. It was completed in February 2022.
- Operation Flow
- The restaurant seamlessly blends into the landscape, inviting visitors to experience nature through architecture. Large glass openings connect indoor and outdoor spaces, offering panoramic views of the gardens. The design enhances comfort with natural ventilation and lighting, creating a warm and immersive atmosphere. Visitors engage with the space fluidly, enjoying an experience that evolves with the seasons, reinforcing a deep connection with the surrounding environment.
