在进行场地所在社区的背景和生活条件分析时，设计团队偶然发现当地房子很多都是用木头和土墙建造的，而天花板上的手工陶土瓦则可以有效防雨防潮。因此，设计师将粘土瓦片元素置入到咖啡馆的墙壁上，作为室内设计的一部分，这种设置不仅传达了当地人的生活方式，同时也创造出一种独特而温暖的材质肌理，成为极具氛围感的品牌商标。毋庸置疑的是，粘土瓷砖的排列与镂空具有强烈的视觉冲击力，同时粘土瓦的曲率和材料特性有助于吸收和偏转声波，进而改善空间中的声学效果。当光线与纹理相映衬时，粘土瓦片组成的墙面就获得了深度，每片瓦片上弯曲的阴影就像咖啡豆一般，将空间与产品连接起来。

When analyzing the context and the living conditions of this community, we stumbled upon their homes which are constructed with wood and dirt walls with handmade clay tiles on the ceiling to protect themselves from the rain. Using this clay tiles as part of the interior design on the walls, not only conveys their ways of life, but also offers a unique and warm texture that will function as an ambiance trademark for the brand. Needless to say, this clay-piece arrangements and lattice have a very powerful impact on the eye; their curvature and material properties help absorb and deflect sound waves to help with the acoustics. When the light is set against the texture, it acquires depth and its curved shadows resemble coffee beans, connecting the space to the product.

咖啡吧台特意设置在每位顾客都能看到的地方，因为它是本项目的核心和灵魂。开放的空间与浓厚的工业氛围促进了顾客和员工之间的友好互动，将吧台变身为咖啡师完美的表演舞台。无论是在咖啡豆的发酵还是咖啡的冲泡中，时间都是至关重要的因素，因此，“时间”在本项目的设计理念中也占据了重要的地位，“时间”的概念以酒吧和隔间底部的胡桃木的形式呈现出来，木材的纹理如同时间镌刻过的地表，提醒着人们耕种一片土地需要多长时间才能收获。

The coffee bar is located intentionally where every client can see it as it is the heart and soul of this project. The open and industrial-like design promotes amenable interactions between the customers and the staff, which gives the barista the perfect stage to become a performer. We know time is of the essence, which is why it played a very significant role in this concept. It got portrayed with the walnut wood used at the base of the bar and booths. Its grain resembles the grounds layers which document the passing of time. Reminding us of how long it takes to prepare a land to harvest.
