蒙特利爾網紅咖啡廳PASTEL RITA設計-設計風向

APPAREIL Architecture麵臨著設計Mile-End咖啡館的挑戰，這家咖啡館精品店充滿了色彩和大膽。140㎡的空間設有咖啡廳、工匠工作室以及展示當地創作的精品空間。

APPAREIL Architecture rose to the challenge of designing a Mile-End café-boutique overflowing with colors and daring. The 1500 square foot space houses a café, artisans’ workshops, and a boutique space where local creations are showcased.

在接觸APPAREIL建築公司時，擁有該空間的夫婦，Radio Radio樂隊成員Gabriel Malenfant和品牌Bouquet的創始人VéroniqueOrbande Xivry希望創建一個混合咖啡館和工作室的混合空間精品。這種獨特的協作精神體現在APPAREIL Architecture的重疊空間中，讓客戶在創作工作坊中獲得獨家一瞥，同時享受咖啡。

In approaching the APPAREIL Architecture firm, the couple who owns the space, Gabriel Malenfant, member of the band Radio Radio, and Véronique Orban de Xivry, founder of the brand Bouquet, wished to create a hybrid space that combined a café with a workshop-boutique. This unique collaborative spirit is expressed in APPAREIL Architecture’s proposition through overlapping spaces which allow customers to gain an exclusive glimpse at the creation workshop, all while enjoying a coffee.

位於創意Mile-End社區的St-Laurent街上，大窗戶可以自然采光，同時讓路人預覽店麵內的創意。Pastel Rita的咖啡廳區域因其溫馨的氛圍脫穎而出，因為以紀念加布裏埃爾的祖母麗塔而得名。這部分空間由一個大型中央吧台組成，可以讓咖啡師和顧客直接互動。這款定製家具以及APPAREIL Atelier的FLOE椅子采用光澤綠色塗裝，為整個空間帶來節日氣氛。在吧台後麵，一個由木板製成的隔板作為分隔，勾勒出牆壁的精品展示部分。這個麵板上有大型拱形開口，將手提包，帽子和皮革配件放在隔板上向顧客展示。

Located on St-Laurent street in the creative Mile-End neighbourhood, the large windows allow for natural lighting, while giving passersby a preview of the creations placed in the storefront. The café section of Pastel Rita stands out through its welcoming atmosphere, and was so named in honor of Rita, Gabriel’s grand-mother. This part of the space consists of a large central bar which allows for direct contact between the baristas and the customers. Painted in a glossy green, this custom-made furnishing, as well as APPAREIL Atelier’s FLOE chairs, lend a festive tone to the room. Behind the bar, a partition made of wooden slats serves as a separating screen delineating the boutique section of the wall. This panel is punctuated by large, arch-shaped openings, putting the handbags, hats, and leather accessories on a pedestal. The curve of the golden ceiling reinforces the delineation of the space, while creating a luxurious effect that serves to highlight the creations produced in the workshop.

在精品店，幾個建築細節作為工匠的手提包和配件創作的展示。曲線和柔和的色調營造出富有創意和俏皮的氛圍。座椅角落是定製設計，麵向大型金屬窗戶裝飾門，讓好奇的顧客可以直接看到工作中的工匠。這個歡樂的區域似乎是從另一個宇宙中直接拍攝出來的，因為它的所有組件都呈現出柔和的粉紅色。
In the boutique, several architectural details act as displays for the artisans’ handbag and accessory creations. The predominance of curves and the pastel color palette give rise to a creative and playful atmosphere. A seating nook was custom-designed and faces large, metallic, window-adorned doors that allow curious customers to have a direct view on the artisans at work. This convivial zone seems to be taken straight out of another universe, as all its components sport a pastel pink color.

“Bouquet手袋品牌以其顏色而聞名，我的藝術世界，包括我的服裝風格，也是如此。我們認為APPAREIL Architecture更清潔，甚至是現代風格，再加上我們對色彩設計的渴望，將是完美的“聯姻”，而這正是我們作為最終產品所獲得的。APPAREIL敦促我們以與我們想象的完全不同的方式可視化空間及其“流動”。現在，我們無法想象它是否正確。“Gabriel Malenfant和VéroniqueOrbande Xivry解釋到。

“The Bouquet handbag brand is known for its colors, and my artistic universe, including my clothing style, is too. We thought that APPAREIL Architecture’s cleaner, even contemporary style, combined with our desire for a colorful design, would be the perfect marriage, and it’s exactly what we got as a final product. APPAREIL urged us to visualize the space and its “flow” in a completely different way than we had imagined. Now, we couldn’t imagine it being otherwise.” explain the owners, Gabriel Malenfant and Véronique Orban de Xivry.
