About The Henley कफी सप भित्री डिजाइन

द हेन्ली हङकङमा रहेको एउटा कफी सप भित्री डिजाइन हो। प्रवेशद्वार अन्तरिक्ष यानको ढोकाजस्तो देखिन्छ र एउटा लामो, साँघुरो करिडोरतर्फ लैजान्छ। करिडोरको अन्त्यमा, आगन्तुकहरू कफी बार र मुख्य बस्ने क्षेत्रमा पुग्छन्। बिरुवाहरू, वक्ररेखाहरू, विशेष रूपमा बनाइएका बत्तीहरू र विभिन्न बनावट र फिनिसका सामग्रीहरू छत, भित्ता र भुइँमा प्रयोग गरिएका छन्। स्टिल, एल्युमिनियम, कंक्रिट, काठ, विशेष सिसा र कपडाले कठोर र नरम सतहहरूबीच सन्तुलन सिर्जना गर्छन्। लगभग २५० वर्ग मिटरको अनियमित आकारको खाली ठाउँभित्र गोलाकार आवागमनलाई सहज बनाउने गरी लेआउट तयार गरिएको छ।

Unique Properties
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.
Dimensions & Packaging
Space area: approx. 250 sq m
Ceiling height: 2.4 m - 3.0 m

Production Technology
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
Design Challenge
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.
Inspiration
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.
Project Duration
The project started in May 2022, and finished in December 2022 in Hong Kong.
Operation Flow
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.
