Harudot咖啡馆是在泰国海滨小城春武里的一家独立咖啡馆。这家咖啡馆是Nana Coffee Roasters老板与这块土地所有者合伙开的店,他们对具有独特形态的植物特别感兴趣。

Harudot is a stand-alone café in Chonburi, a famous beachside town in Thailand. This cafe is a result of a collaboration between the Nana Coffee Roasters brand owner and the landlord who has a particular interest in plants with unique forms.

“Haru”一词在日语中的意思是"春天",指的是"新的开始"和"增长",而“Dot”象征着"起点"。这个咖啡馆的两个主要要求是:第一,设计一个有趣体验的"目的地",能够吸引游客;

第二,在设计中体现房东的身份,以表明这种独特的合作。建筑师选择了专注于新起点和成长的概念,将树木纳入设计的核心。一棵瓶状的猴面包树被放置在建筑中庭里,建筑打开的山墙,让它向天空生长,因此看起来就像猴面包树很久以前就被种植在这里,随着时间的推移,已经在建筑中生长出来了。

The name “Haru” translates to “Spring” in Japanese, referring to a “new beginning” and “growth” while “Dot” symbolizes a “starting point”. The two main requirements for this cafe are to, firstly, design a "destination" with an interesting experience that is able to attract visitors and, secondly, to include the landlord's identity in the design in order to signify this unique collaboration. The architect chose to focus on the concept of new beginnings and growth by including trees in the heart of the design. A bottle tree (baobab) has been placed in an inner court, where the gable form of the architecture is pulled apart to allow for its growth towards the sky, thus making it appear as if the seed of the baobab was been planted long before and has grown out through the architecture as time passes.

这个咖啡品牌的特性，深受日本文化影响,因此建筑师将咖啡馆设计的简洁内敛,但注重细节。建筑外立面使用三个简单的黑色山墙，巧妙的外观与室内天然温暖的松木墙形成鲜明的对比。当游客们进入咖啡馆时,曲线动感的入口空间更令人难忘。

The cafe brand’s identity is strongly inspired by Japanese culture, hence the architect interprets this as humble simplicity but with attention to detail. This is represented through the exterior, using three simple gable forms in black color for a subtle look that contrasts with the natural warm pine wood walls of the interior space. As visitors enter the cafe through the gable, the space morphs and bends with curves as it leads guests further into the cafe, where the space becomes more dynamic and memorable.

为了使建筑更人性化,建筑物整体分成了较小空间,形成不同的功能分区如：酒吧、咖啡饮水区、休息室、会议室和洗手间。在中庭区域,让树穿过建筑进入天空,在下面形成一个半室外的空间。这些中庭区还形成有趣的曲线形态,增加了建筑的活力与动感。中庭会有雨水和阳光进入庭院,在建筑封闭的墙壁中保持与自然的联系。这些开放的功能空间继续延伸到建筑内部,在那里,他们与Barrisol天花板相连接,有助于建筑内部采光。Barrisol 天花板也与中庭的天空隙相呼应,在视觉和概念上将两个空间连接成一个整体。

The building is separated into smaller masses to make it more human-scale, which establishes different zones such as the bar, coffee drinking zone, a lounge, a meeting room, and the restrooms. The giant gable roof form of each mass is pulled apart at certain parts, allowing the tree to penetrate through a void to the sky, creating a semi-outdoor space underneath. These voids also resulted in an interesting curved form which added movement and dynamism to the architecture. The voids allow for rainfall and sunlight to enter into the semi-outdoor court, maintaining a connection with nature despite the enclosed walls. These opening features continue into the interior space, where instead of actual voids, they are enclosed with Barrisol stretch ceilings that help diffuse the lighting inside, creating a warm, softly lit space. The Barrisol ceiling also echoes with the actual open voids in the courtyard, visually and conceptually connecting both spaces into one entirety.

座位设计的如丝带一样，环绕着内部空间形成一定的连续性,而柜台的高度不同,以适应不同的功能和使用。室外座椅是用树脂制成的,混合了咖啡渣、米饭和树叶,以配合咖啡主题。

The seating arrangement is designed to be continuous like a ribbon, wrapping around the interior space to create continuity, whereas the height of the counters differ to suit the different functions and uses. The outdoor seating is made from resin, mixed with coffee grounds, rice, and leaves to tie into the coffee theme

对细节的设计也体现在图形元素上,定制的字体和标牌是受圆形起点和春天的启发。地板是水磨石,材料的区分是必要的,因此建筑师专门设计了地板分隔为圆形,嵌入导视图案和文字,引导顾客进入不同的功能区。另一个有趣的的元素是水磨石地板上的花瓣图案向外发散,仿佛它们从树上掉下来一样。建筑师通过不同维度之间的这种相互作用，各个空间形成了一个有趣的联动,从而为客户提供了另一个隐藏的设计亮点。

The attention to detail extends to the graphic elements, with custom-designed fonts and signage which have been inspired by circular dots and the spring season. The floor is terrazzo, and the separation in the material is necessary, therefore the architect specifically designed the floor separations to be circular, with insertions of embedded quotes and words that lead to different functions in the cafe. Another playful element includes the flower petals pattern in the terrazzo floor, radiating outward as if they have fallen from the actual trees. The architect formed a playful connection through this interplay between the different dimensions, resulting in another hidden gem for the customers to unveil.
