The Design

About Polo Kawiarnia

Polo nie ma nic wspólnego z luksusem, to idea kochającego życia. A Polo i kawa to rodzaj stylu życia. Znajdująca się w Hsinchu na Tajwanie kawiarnia Polo Café inspirowana jest dynamicznymi liniami zamachu w polo oraz zmianami światła i cienia podczas biegu koni. Esencja elementów sportu polo jest wydobywana i przekształcana w zgrabne metalowe linie, które są rozproszone i uporządkowane w przestrzeni poprzez delikatne aranżacje. Projektant umieścił ducha tego klasycznego sportu w przestrzeni, poprzez sprytne dopasowanie linii sufitu, aby stworzyć wrażenie szybkości i skupienia.
