受到库布里克电影的启发，两位年轻人决心在上海市区打造一间属于他们自己的特色酒吧和咖啡吧 ——“KoRoVa”，其意即是对于发条橙电影的致敬，也表明着其将来小众文化的特征与立场。
Inspired by Kubrick’s films, two young men are building their own cafe & bar — “KoRoVa” in downtown Shanghai. It means a tribute to the “Clockwork Orange” film, which also shows their characteristics and position of minority culture in the future.
▲以未来表现的吧台致敬60s电影场景 Pay tribute to the 1960s film scenes with futuristic decoration
用设计致敬而并非简单的复刻。从电影出发，我们将剧情的三个段落映射到平面空间上，并赋予其对应的个性和功能。在理性和现实之上，试图构建出一个充满情绪的场所。
Salute with design, not a simple replica. Starting from the film, we project the three paragraphs of the plot to the plan layout and endow them with corresponding personalities and functions. Based on rationality and reality, we are trying to build an emotional place.

原初 The Primal
<我们都感到有点疲累和烦心，在这个小小发泄了精力的夜晚后。所以我们下了车，来到科罗瓦奶吧睡前小酌。>
<We were all feeling a bit shagged and fagged and fashed, it having been an evening some small energy expenditure. So we got rid of the auto and stopped at the Korova for a nightcap.>

银色基调的不锈钢平板和波纹板包裹着整个墙面，形态复杂的多边形结构悬挂在顶面，透露出尖锐、激进、甚至是危险的属性。多边形缝隙中投射出忽而纯净明亮、忽而幻化莫测的光线，勾勒着边界、晕染了空间。像是一只由珍惜的天堂之石铸成的鸟，亦像是流动在一艘宇宙飞船中的奇异佳酿…
Silver-tone stainless steel plates and corrugated panels wrap the entire wall, with complex polygonal structures hanging on the top, revealing sharp, radical, and even dangerous properties. The polygonal gaps cast light that is sometimes pure, bright and sometimes unpredictable, outlining the boundary and haloing the space. It’s like a bird cast from the cherished stone of heaven, or a wonderful wine flowing in a spaceship…
▲吧台上方的几何图形更密更有包裹感 The geometries above the bar are denser and more wrapped
与顶面的动态形成强烈对比，棕色的木质吧台漂浮在空间正中央，透露出安静、温暖的内在特质。像是老店铺的木条板门面，酒架被可拆卸的波纹板面板所覆盖。每当夜幕降临，面纱被揭开，酒体在微光中露出了真实的样貌，流淌、闪烁、舞动、穿梭…
In strong contrast to the dynamics of the ceiling geometries, the brown wooden bar floats in the centre of the space reveal quiet, warm intrinsic qualities. Like the wooden batten facade of an old shop, the alcohol is covered by removable corrugated panels. When night falls and the veil is lifted, the bar shows its true appearance in the dim light, flowing, flashing, dancing and shuttling…

改造 The Reform
<善良是种选择，当一个人无法选择，他也不再为人>
<Goodness is chosen. When a man cannot choose…he ceases to be a man>
拉开暗藏于墙体那扇不起眼的门，里头空间被挤压成狭窄的模样，黯淡、黑色。随着门慢慢地关上，剧情也从原初的激进转场成了无声的阴郁。此时的感觉，是压抑、不安，亦或者是一种古怪的如释重负，因为，门外的一切，已经与这儿无关…
Open the inconspicuous door hidden in the wall, the space is squeezed into a narrow appearance, dark and black. As the door slowly closes, the plot changed from the original radical to silent gloom. At the feeling of this time, is depressed, uneasy, or is a strange relief, because everything outside the door has nothing to do with here…

回归 The Return
<一个没家没钱的人，我能去哪里，我为自己哭喊着，家，家，家，我渴望的是一个家>
<Where was I to go, who had no home and no money? I cried for myself. Home, home, home. It was home I was wanting.>
▲可调节灯光与悬挂系统可使空间变换多种功能 The adjustable lighting and suspension system can transform the space into a variety of functions
晦暗的样子总不会是常态。门的另一端，顺着光线的指引，是一个开阔、对称的房间。地面和墙面有着温润的米色，顶面被方块状的镜面所覆盖。同样的方块状建筑语言，从顶面延伸到墙面，重复成一组组有序的壁龛。
Darkness is not the norm. The other end of the door, following the light guidance, is an open, symmetrical room. The ground and wall have a warm beige colour, and the ceiling is covered by square mirrors. The same square architectural language extends from the top to the wall and repeats into orderly niches.
▲中心位视角 View of the centre position
这个空间里，呈现出一种温暖的、家一样的氛围，也有些许上世纪70、80年代的中古风格的调性，比如家具、比如雕塑。之于场所，是对过去的致敬，之于情绪，则是一种简单的回归。
顶面之间的缝隙中，安装有可调节的射灯和吊轨，随着挂画被撤下，灯光渐暗，这儿摇身一变，成了一间舒适安静的卡座区域。人们聊着、喝着，在艺术品和交响乐的包围中，就像是回到了他们都熟悉的各自的家中…
This space presents a warm, home-like atmosphere, along with the medieval tone of the 1970s and 1980s, such as furniture, sculpture. To the place, is a tribute to the past, to the emotions, is a simple return. In the gap between the top surfaces, adjustable spotlights and hanging rails are installed. As the suspended paintings are removed and the lights fade, it becomes a comfortable and quiet seat area. People talk and drink, surrounded by works of art and symphonies, it is like going back to their homes that they are all familiar with…
