About Moonshine Te Hoahoa o Roto Wharekapu

He wharekapu a Moonshine i hoahoatia i te ahua Brutalism, kei Taipei e tū ana. Ko te rahi o te wāhi 5 mita ki te 20 mita, e hipoki ana i te 100 mita tapawhā. Kua tangohia ngā whakapaipai kia noho tonu ai ngā rauemi hei aronga matua. Ko te raima mata, ngā mata kua patupatuhia, ngā tauira i hangaia ki te koko haumeka me ngā koki porowhita e whakaatu ana i te roto o te wharekapu. I hangaia ngā tauira o mua i te pā pāra ki ngā puka poka o mua, kātahi ka piri ki ngā taonga whakapaipai. Ko ngā nohonga i ngā teitei rerekē, he pā pāra roa hei whakawhitiwhiti korero, me tētahi paepae e tautoko ana i te whakawhitiwhiti tangata, ā, ko te whakatakotoranga e whakatuwhera ana i ngā tirohanga mai i te huarahi ki te wāhi tunu pini.

Unique Properties
As a cafe designed in the style of Brutalism, the materials that are used lie at the center of this project. Muuk has eliminated all unnecessary ornamentation and incorporated various techniques into the work. The raw concrete, hammered surface, patterns created with cement spatula, even the rounded corners come together to convey the supreme architectural craftsmanship of Brutalism. The spatial arrangements allow bodily movements and vision to move throughout the space, allowing the people on the streets a view of and further exchange with the factory space, which is the heart of the cafe.

Production Technology
The raw concrete, hammered surface, patterns created with cement spatula, even the rounded corners come together to convey the supreme architectural craftsmanship of Brutalism. Muuk has deliberately carved out spaces for interaction, such as the areas with different seating heights and the extended communal bar top and bench.he spatial arrangements allow bodily movements and vision to move throughout the space, from the semi-outdoor seating to the bean roasting area at the end, allowing the people on the streets a view of and further exchange with the factory space.
Design Challenge
For this design project, Muuk challenged the different possibilities of concrete. Apart from incorporating concrete in its usual usage on flooring, Muuk attempted to create lines and patterns on the facade of the bar. Due to the challenges of creating the pattern on site, Muuk decided to adjust the process and created the pattern using precast molds, and the completed facades were then reattached to the furniture piece.
Research

Inspiration
