About The Henley 咖啡店室內設計
The Henley 係香港一間咖啡店嘅室內設計。入口設計仿如太空船艙門,通往一條又長又窄嘅走廊。行到走廊盡頭,就會到達咖啡吧枱同主要座位區。天花、牆身同地板都運用咗植物、曲線、訂製燈飾,以及多種質感同飾面嘅物料。鋼材、鋁材、混凝土、木材、特色玻璃同布料互相配搭,營造出剛與柔嘅平衡質感。整體布局配合約250平方米不規則形狀嘅空間,設計出環迴流動嘅動線。

- 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 - Tags

- 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.
