Production Technology: Due to the cafe is positioned as medium to high price consumption and the customer base is 30-60 years old with a certain income and spending ability, the design is based on a stable atmosphere. The designer has used flat marble, matt brass, black and white tile flooring to present an atmosphere of carm, warm yet stylish. Laminated board is also used for easy maintenance. The furniture used in the first store is also applied into this space to reduce cost and preserve consistent style.
Design Challenge: The main challenge is the budget constraint. With aesthetic expression of the anticipated space atmoshpere, the budget is controlled via the use of hardware and software from the 1st store, like hanging display cabinets, guest tables, dining chairs, etc. How to avoid waste of space, smoothen the work flow, optimize the manpower time are the major topics. They are solved via continuous practices of the space flow. Large tungsten filament bulbs are used in the interior to attract the passersby.
Research: The designers and their client have mutual anticipation of stability and spiritual balance for this project. Considering meal price positioning, customer base, etc. dark tones are used presenting a calm atmosphere, strong personality via clean lines, cement texture and the matching of high color saturation, show the resilience of the client. Elements from the 1st store and the entrepreneurial spirit of the client are inherited, add a sense of familiarity to the customers.
Inspiration: The designer is appointed by the client who has spent 5 years of preparation to establish a cafe. Despite the operation of the 1st cafe is not ideal, the client has decided to restart the project by setting up a 2nd cafe. This project is born via the combination of various elements including the consideration for the characteristics of the customers, the meals served as well as the customers impression of the 1st cafe, extending the building appearance while unifying the overall visual sense.
Project Duration: The project is located in central west district of Tainan City, Taiwan and completed in May, 2017.
Operation Flow: Other than extending the color tone of the building exterior into the interior, the impressive big blue door element from the 1st store is added into the interior space of this project, creating a sense of inheritance. Realizing a calm base tone, it emphasizes on simplicity and the sense of complementary aesthetics between the main theme and decorations, and uses small spotlights and situational lightings to present pleasant tranquility.
