上海,生活化的街道更具有社交属性。3½的新店坐落于太原路上,对于SomeThoughts来说,这是我们明显地寻求平衡性表达的项目。在我们的想象中,3½应该具备包容性的同时又具备商业的多样性
In the bustling streets of Shanghai, where life intertwines with social interactions, we find the enchanting 3½ store nestled on Taiyuan Road. For SomeThoughts, this project is a profound exploration of balance, both in its inclusive essence and its diverse commercial offerings.

3½的外立面在街道拥有相当大尺度的展面,但对于材料、入口以及店招的设计,我们选择了最为克制的表达。希望将建筑隐匿于街道,以一种近乎自然的状态迎接每一位访客。
The facade of 3½ boasts a grand scale, yet we have chosen a restrained approach in the selection of materials, the design of the entrance, and the signage. Our intention is to seamlessly blend the architecture into the fabric of the street, welcoming each visitor with an almost organic embrace.

入口处的空间,我们将其设置为“稍作停顿”的状态。希望访客在产品体验之前有一个情绪的停留,并预示着接下来全新的感官体验。
At the entrance, we have crafted a space that invites a momentary pause. It serves as a sanctuary where visitors can linger in a state of emotional anticipation, foreshadowing the extraordinary sensory journey that awaits them.

所有的功能组织及动线都将围绕“对谈”而展开。L型吧台横穿整个空间,产品与服务的感官体验成为了空间探讨的主体。SomeThoughts将商业设计中对“符号性”的探索,转化为对“感官维度”的一种理解。而这便是通过设计语言的保留与行为模式的便利性来赋予的。

Every aspect of the spatial organization and flow revolves around the art of conversation. A captivating L-shaped bar counter gracefully traverses the entire expanse, becoming the focal point for sensory encounters with products and services. SomeThoughts has transformed the exploration of symbolic representation in commercial design into a profound understanding of the sensory dimensions. This is achieved through the preservation of design language and the seamless integration of behavioral patterns.


顺着旋梯拾级而上,二楼是功能性更复合的空间。参与其中的访客仿佛能体验到“主厨厨房”的专业性与松弛感。而这也是客观、真实的存在,因为除了日常的营业外,产品的研发、业内的分享以及不定期的活动都将在这里进行。
Ascending the spiral staircase, the second floor unfolds as a multifaceted sanctuary. Here, visitors are immersed in an ambiance that effortlessly blends the professionalism of a chef’s kitchen with an atmosphere of relaxation. This space is not only a realm for daily operations but also a hub for product development, industry sharing, and occasional gatherings, where authenticity and creativity converge.


“有机树脂”与“玻璃纤维”反复的混合、凝固、打磨,肌理所透出的是随机而交织的状态。利用自然与人工之间的相互作用激活着自然。在改造过程中,我们目的性的对原建筑状态进行了保留,尝试利用材料对结构的“渗透”来实现建筑与自然的平衡。
The interplay of “organic resin” and “fiberglass” in a rhythmic dance of mixing, solidification, and polishing creates a texture that exudes an enchanting tapestry of randomness and interconnectedness. Harnessing the harmonious interplay between nature and human ingenuity, we have endeavored to strike a delicate balance between the architectural structure and the surrounding natural elements, allowing them to coexist in perfect harmony.


△In Process


3½表示,3分代表“好的咖啡”,而3½,寓意着想要追求比好更好一点的咖啡品质。在此,SomeThoughts认为在“内容输出性”的差异化产品面前,空间无须讨论流行,更无须成为众人的焦点,通过时间慢慢地传播开来就好。
3½, a name that encapsulates the essence of our vision, with “3” representing the pursuit of “excellent coffee,” and “½” symbolizing our relentless quest for coffee quality that transcends mere excellence. In this realm, SomeThoughts firmly believes that the space need not conform to fleeting trends or vie for attention. Instead, it gracefully unfolds over time, captivating hearts and minds with its timeless allure.
