Wrong Door Studio | Mellow Cafe，法国米卢斯 | Hi设计

Mellow Cafe是Wrong Door Studio在法国米卢斯设计的一座紧凑型外带咖啡館，主创建筑师为Kseniya Popova。项目室内面积27平方米，室外4平方米，总面积约31平方米。该项目并没有试图用面积取胜，而是把咖啡館视为一个完整的空间序列——材料、光线与动线共同塑造顾客点单、等待和带走的体验。设计围绕技术、现代生活方式与“可及的高级感”展开，不依赖装饰堆砌，而是通过简洁几何、克制形式和精心挑选的材料，建立一种平静、自信而当代的街头气质。

有些最令人难忘的空间并非因尺度，而是因氛围而诞生。Mellow Cafe 探索空间如何成为完整的建筑体验——通过深思熟虑的规划、材料与光，塑造一个既当代、友好，又轻松高效的目的地。作为一个小型城市外带咖啡馆，该项目重新构想了小面积如何带来高级的顾客体验。

Some of the most memorable spaces are created not through size, but through atmosphere. Mellow Cafe explores how the space can become a complete architectural experience — where thoughtful planning, materiality, and light shape a destination that feels contemporary, welcoming, and effortlessly functional. Designed as a compact urban takeaway cafe, the project reimagines how a small footprint can deliver a premium customer experience.概念围绕三个核心原则构建：技术、现代生活方式，以及触手可及的高级感。空间并不依赖装饰，而是通过建筑本身呈现街头风格的身份。简洁的几何、克制的形式，以及精心策划的材料调色板，营造出平静、自信且鲜明的现代环境。

The concept is built around three defining principles: technology, modern lifestyle, and accessible premium. Rather than relying on decoration, the street-style identity of the space emerges through architecture itself. Clean geometries, restrained forms, and a carefully curated material palette create an environment that feels calm, confident, and distinctly modern. 空间原有状态布局草稿

混凝土、拉丝不锈钢、有纹理的金属和微妙的蓝色点缀，确立了咖啡馆的视觉语言。其中心是一座以扭曲镜面不锈钢饰面的雕塑式吧台——一个动态焦点，捕捉反射、运动与光，使室内拥有不断变化的性格。每一种材料的选择不仅出于美学品质，也因其强化项目当代身份的能力。

Concrete, brushed stainless steel, textured metal, and subtle blue accents establish the visual language of the cafe. At its center stands a sculptural counter finished in distorted mirror stainless steel — a dynamic focal point that captures reflections, movement, and light, giving the interior a constantly evolving character. Every material was selected not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its ability to reinforce the project’s contemporary identity.

光在整个项目中扮演建筑角色。外露金属网格吊顶成为多层照明系统的框架：集成吊顶面板提供柔和的环境照明，悬挂式发光立方体引入雕塑般的重点，发光标识强化品牌身份，而投影数字菜单则将一面简单的墙转化为互动交流元素。这些层次共同创造深度、韵律与氛围——使光成为建筑的必要部分，而不仅是功能需求。

Light plays an architectural role throughout the project. The exposed metal grid ceiling becomes the framework for a multi-layered lighting system, where integrated ceiling panels provide soft ambient illumination, suspended luminous cubes introduce sculptural accents, illuminated signage strengthens the brand identity, and a projected digital menu transforms a simple wall into an interactive communication element. Together, these layers create depth, rhythm, and atmosphere — making light an essential part of the architecture rather than simply a functional necessity.

每一个设计决策都由顾客体验驱动。地面图形直观地引导访客穿过咖啡馆，投影菜单则保持室内视觉整洁，并强化其当代数字特征。最终形成的顾客旅程无缝、直观，并自然融入建筑之中。

Every design decision was driven by the customer experience. Floor graphics intuitively guide visitors through the cafe, while the projected menu keeps the interior visually clean and reinforces its contemporary digital character. The result is a customer journey that feels seamless, intuitive, and naturally integrated into the architecture.

每一种功能都各得其所——从咖啡制作和外带服务，到冷藏展示、零售货架和储物。紧凑的面积成为优势而非限制，创造出一个高效、有序且出人意料地宽敞的空间。智能规划让运营性能与视觉清晰度并存，毫不妥协。

Every function finds its place — from coffee preparation and takeaway service to refrigerated displays, retail shelving, and storage. The compact footprint becomes an advantage rather than a limitation, creating a space that feels efficient, organized, and unexpectedly spacious. Intelligent planning allows operational performance and visual clarity to coexist without compromise.

该项目并非只是设计一家咖啡馆，而是探索建筑如何通过比例、光和材料性表达当代生活方式。

Rather than simply designing a cafe, the project explores how architecture can express a contemporary lifestyle through proportion, light, and materiality. Mellow Cafe demonstrates that even the smallest spaces can leave a lasting impression when every detail contributes to a single, cohesive vision.
