Production Technology

The light penetrates the stencil to form a number of scattered small circles of light, creating a delicate, elegant and romantic space texture. Gold and dark tones are used in the interior to exude understated luxury and create a brand image of high-end boutique. The ring-shaped light strip is matched with blue mesh panels and a ceiling with intertwined triangular surfaces. Just like the African grassland under the setting sun, covered with golden brilliance, the birds spread their wings and soar, and the brisk rhythm leaps out, activating the indoor atmosphere.

Design Challenge

Setting up a takeaway coffee shop on the bustling streets of Taipei is the first brand management method that customers have tried. Passing the simple African elements to customers and harmoniously integrating with the fashionable business district street atmosphere, creating a new brand image is the design focus of this cafe. The designer disassembles the African elements in an abstract way, transforms them into geometric shapes, and integrates them into the space design with various changes in the form of light sources.

Research

The owner's business philosophy is a social enterprise that returns business profits to the world. 50% of the profits will be donated to the "African Clean Water Project" to build water wells in Africa in cooperation with World Vision. Baristas go deep into Africa to find suitable coffee beans and bring the mellow coffee taste from Africa to people. The designer integrates the brand concept and the background story of the founding into the space. A coffee bean display tube is set up in the cabinet to display various coffee beans used in the store. It also allows customers to have a deeper understanding of the brand concept.

Inspiration

The store is located on the prosperous Zhongxiao East Road. It provides take-out-oriented coffee and souffles ,while healing the mood of people who are working busy. The ceiling made up of golden light strips with blue mesh panels and interlaced triangles is like a flock of birds flying in the blue sky. The light penetrates the net plate, forming a scattered dots of light, creating a cozy space full of vigor and romance.

Project Duration

The project started in October 2019 and finished in November 2019 in Taiwan, Taipei City.

Operation Flow

There are not many seats in the store, you can choose to sit on a simple bench seat or a standing table to lean against, just like a street coffee bar, you can communicate freely or concentrate on tasting. The time to enjoy a cup of coffee is an exclusive time zone that is worth putting down and savoring.
The facade and modeling bar table use flowing lines to outline the C-shaped arc line that symbolizes Come True, and combine with the tabletop to increase the interaction with customers, showing the brand spirit and image.
