Blue Bottle咖啡不断地在顾客和员工之间建立平等的关系，这是他们致力于“分享美味咖啡”的表现。尽管Blue Bottle咖啡灵活地融入了各个新店的当地文化，但无论走到哪里，这种态度永远不会改变。
Blue Bottle Coffee constantly strives to create an equal relationship between customers and staff over the counter, which is an expression of their dedication to “sharing delicious coffee.” While Blue Bottle Coffee flexibly adapts to the local culture of a new location, this approach never changes no matter where they go.

在香港豪华高楼的背面，狭窄的街巷中挤满了破败的公寓楼，墙面伸出不规则的标识，阳台挂满衣物。路面也逐渐破裂冒浆。设计团队发现在香港行走，鞋底很容易变脏，或许这也是这里有很多砖地面商铺的原因之一，瓷砖便于清洗，并且可以在温暖的气候中快速变干。由于该咖啡店位于这样的街巷之中，设计团队决定使用瓷砖。
In the city of Hong Kong, narrow side streets behind luxurious high-rise buildings are crammed with dingy apartment buildings with random signs sticking out of the walls and laundry hanging on the balconies. Pavements are peeling off and paddles are forming under the feet. We noticed that soles of shoes tend to get dirty walking around the city, which led us to think that perhaps one of the reasons why there are many stores with tile floors is that a tile floor can be washed easily with water and dries quickly in the warm climate of the city. Since this cafe is located on one of such streets, we decided to use tiles.

在铺设瓷砖时，日本建筑师更喜欢用湿贴法，因为他们觉得这样有助于增强瓷砖的美感。在该项目中，设计团队使用专为湿贴法设计的、定制于多治见市的瓷砖。同时，咖啡店所在的建筑是用混凝土建造的，因此他们要求制造商制作混凝土颜色的瓷砖，创造出可以享受咖啡的简单舒适的场所。
When applying tiles, we Japanese architects in general prefer using the wet construction method, because we feel it enhances the beauty of tiles. This time, we decided to use tiles designed for the wet construction method that are custom-made in Tajimi city, one of the top tile producers in the world. Since the building is made of concrete, we asked the manufacturer to make tiles in the color of concrete to create a simple and cozy place to enjoy coffee.
