About Lusso Тарҳрезии дохилии қаҳвахона

Lusso як фазои дохилии қаҳвахона аст, ки дар минтақаи осмонхарошҳои шаҳри Сеули Корея ҷойгир шудааст. Тарҳ маводи табииро бо унсурҳои муосири шаҳрӣ пайваст мекунад. Санг, хишт, чӯб ва пӯлод пардозҳои асосиро ташкил медиҳанд ва ин маводҳо бо мурури замон ва аз ламси дасти инсон рангҳои беназир пайдо мекунанд. Дар байни минтақаҳои нишаст боғчаҳои хурд ҷойгир карда шудаанд, то аз зиндагии шаҳрӣ таваққуфи визуалӣ пешниҳод кунанд. Ҷудокунандаҳои каҷи аз пӯлоди хамидашуда бо матое пӯшонида шудаанд, ки нурро мулоим паҳн мекунад. Панҷараҳои чӯбӣ дар намои бино ва пештахта санъати шабакакории шарқиро ба ёд меоранд. Масоҳати умумӣ 230 метри мураббаъ аст.

Production Technology: Lusso's challenge was to harmonize Eastern moods with modernity. The goal was to blend natural elements and Eastern sensibilities within a contemporary urban setting to create a unique space. The design of Lusso uses wood and stone to convey an Eastern and nature-friendly atmosphere, while the small gardens offer a modern reinterpretation of traditional Eastern gardens. Meanwhile, metal and sleek designs maintain a connection to the urban environment. By carefully balancing these elements, Lusso provides customers with both natural tranquility and modern sophistication, creating a comfortable retreat even amidst the cityscape.
Design Challenge: In addressing technical challenges, we drew inspiration from the traditional Korean village entrance, specifically the Zelkova tree that always provided cool and comfortable shade. This concept influenced the design of curved partitions and indoor gardens. The curved partitions, a small but distinctive feature of Lusso, were crafted by bending steel to create a frame covered with fabric that softly diffuses light. Designing this involved meticulous planning, especially considering the need to fit the fabric over the steel frame without seams. For the indoor garden, considerable time was spent selecting landscaping plants that are easy to maintain indoors and complement the space.
Cafe Lusso’s finishes are primarily divided into stone, brick, wood, and steel. These materials enhance the space’s character over time, with their natural and humanistic qualities. The careful combination of natural materials with steel adds lightness and practicality to the space, balancing modern sensibilities with a sense of openness and preventing any potential sense of confinement.
The facade and counter feature wooden louvers that evoke an Eastern lattice feeling, subtly concealing the kitchen equipment while maintaining a gentle sense of openness. Wood was added to the window frames to extend the louver effect, creating a connection between the seating by the windows and the exterior. This design ensures a balance between openness to the outside and privacy from others.
Research: Cafe Lusso, inspired by the name of French Romantic philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, seeks to differentiate coffee and its culture through its spatial design. Situated in the modern and urban environment of Sangam-dong, Seoul, Lusso aims to provide natural relaxation and tranquility. By offering a relaxed and warm space, Lusso intends to redefine the meaning of coffee for busy urban dwellers.
The Rousseau Sangam Project strives for de-urbanization amidst the buildings of Sangam-dong, creating a space that contrasts with the urban environment. The design actively incorporates natural materials such as stone, brick, wood, and steel, and includes small gardens to create a contrasting atmosphere to the large, reinforced concrete structures symbolic of modern architecture. These natural materials add warmth and stability to Lusso's space while maintaining an eco-friendly ambiance. Wood and brick, which embrace the passage of time, foster a cozy and comfortable environment, while stone and metal maintain a connection to nature while preserving a modern aesthetic.
Small gardens placed between seating areas help to momentarily relieve the fatigue of city life, providing visual and psychological comfort. This spatial approach realizes Lusso's pursuit of 'harmony between nature and modernity,' deeply exploring the meaning of conversation and relaxation through coffee.
Inspiration: The name "Lusso" is inspired by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, the French Romantic philosopher and coffee enthusiast known for his quest for awakening and change. Lusso seeks to avoid excessive modernity and urbanity, aiming instead to offer a natural and comfortable atmosphere. Time changes many things, adding depth to materials. While some changes can degrade and render objects unusable, others deepen over time, enhancing their richness and character.
Project Duration: Cafe Lusso is located in Mapo-gu, Seoul, Korea. The project started in December 2023, and the interior work was completed in March 2024. The cafe has been operational since the construction was finished.
Operation Flow: Lusso aims to meet the demands of consumers seeking natural relaxation and comfort even in modern, urban environments, creating a distinction from competitors through its space design and philosophy.
Harmony of Nature and Modernity: Lusso creates a unique space by harmonizing modernity with natural elements. This strategic approach provides customers with a comfortable experience and reflects a commitment to sustainability through the use of eco-friendly materials.
Interaction between Space and Customers: Lusso's space design fosters an environment where customers can naturally converse and connect. Cozy seating and small gardens encourage dialogue and social interaction centered around coffee. The space is designed to allow customers to engage in various ways, such as relaxing in the gardens or choosing from different seating arrangements. The natural elements in the space also offer psychological comfort, promoting positive interactions.
