Te Hoahoa

Mō The Henley Te Whare Kohi o Roto

Ko te Henley he whare kohi o roto i Hong Kong. Ko te tomokanga he rite ki te kūaha o tētahi waka mokowhiti, ka arahi atu ki tētahi awa roa, whāiti. I te mutunga o te awa, ka tae ngā manuhiri ki te pae kohi me te wāhi noho matua. Ko ngā tipu, ngā ahotea, ngā rama i hangaia motuhake me ngā rauemi o ngā momo ānō me ngā oti rerekē kua whakamahia ki te tuanui, ngā pakitara me te papa. Ko te rino, konumohau, kōngakonga, rākau, karaehe motuhake me ngā kākahu e hanga ana i tētahi taurite o ngā mata pakeke me ngā mata ngāwari. Ko te whakatakotoranga e tautoko ana i tētahi rerenga porowhita puta noa i te wāhi āhua kore-tikanga o te 250 mita tapawhā pea.

I Muri i te Hoahoa

Kete Pāpāho

Ngā whakamihi, ngā mema o te rōpū me ngā taipitopito hangarau i whakaratohia e te kaihoahoa.

Āhuatanga Motuhake: Through an entrance that resembles the door of a spacecraft, you enter the brightly lit space through a long, narrow corridor. As you reach the end of the corridor, you are welcomed by the coffee bar and the main seating area.

To highlight the coffee experience and ensure comfort while recreating a space journey within the irregularly-shaped space, we incorporated plants, curves, custom-made lighting, materials in different textures and finishes into the ceiling, walls and flooring.
Inenga & Pēketanga: Space area: approx. 250 sq m
Ceiling height: 2.4 m - 3.0 m
Tūtohu: Coffee shop, Cafe, Minimal, Space journey
Hangarau Whakanao: Whilst it was our intention to create an environment that imitates spacecrafts, our team felt that it was important to achieve a balance between hard and soft, warm and cold materials, hence we included greenery and carefully handpicked the following materials to be used within the space:

Steel (in multiple finishes and treatments), aluminum, concrete, wood, feature glass and ESG fabrics and paint
Wero Hoahoa: Much effort was paid to embody the design concept and a sense of spaciousness into the space, which has curved walls and a comparatively low ceiling. Since there is a void right in the middle of the space, and the design process began before the building was even complete, many edits had to be made to the original design in order to apply it to the space. Last but not least, we took extra care in integrating details into the narrow entrance and long corridor to lead users into the main space.
Whakaaweawe: Inspired by the client’s brand aesthetics, the neighbourhood’s history as Hong Kong’s inner-city airport and the rise of space tourism, we created the interior design of the client’s tenth location in Hong Kong with a palette and a careful selection of materials that align with the concept and the client’s brand identity.
Roanga o te Kaupapa: The project started in May 2022, and finished in December 2022 in Hong Kong.
Rerenga Mahi: The design and flow are strongly connected to the architecture of the space. Given that the main space is tucked behind a narrow entrance and long corridor, we paid extra attention in designing the space for a circular flow: customers enter the spacecraft experience by the corridor, enjoy the brand’s coffees, pastries and merchandise, and appreciate the feature points of the interior design.
