Naim是一個隻有55平方米的小型中東咖啡館，其空間充滿了懷舊感和希望，是設計師Stella對敘利亞愛的簡潔表達。幾何瓷磚是古老的阿拉伯式花紋工藝傳統的頌歌，黃銅金屬件充滿著神聖和純淨的氣息。
In the heart of Brisbane city resides a modern Moorish inspired interior for Naim – a small Middle Eastern café designed by The Stella Collective. At just 55 square meters, Naim is conceived as a compact expression of Stella’s enormous love for Syria. It is an interior tinged with nostalgia and hope.
設計旨在表達“用現代的方式來慶祝中東的設計”。Stella Collective的負責人Hana Hakim從與家人在敘利亞阿勒頗的美好回憶中汲取了靈感，她回憶起這座古城的室內庭院、富饒的綠洲、精致的幾何瓷磚和狹小的茶館。
The brief called for a “celebration Middle Eastern design with a modern take”. Hana Hakim, director of Stella Collective, drew inspiration from cherished memories with her family in Aleppo, Syria, remembering the ancient city’s internal courtyards, bountiful oasis, elaborate geometric tiling, and hole-in-the-wall tea houses.
小巧的空間功能有限，主要集中在吧台區域，最大限度地增加了咖啡館的使用麵積。自然光是必不可少的，也是“感覺良好”的因素。這就決定了材質的選擇，並是通過柔軟的紋理和對稱性（敘利亞建築的主幹）來實現的。
The petite space delivers a design that fits like a glove. Functionality was limited and focussed around the bar area to maximize the number of covers for the café. Natural light was imperative as well as the ‘feel good’ factor. This informed the decision of the material palette derived through soft textures and symmetry, the backbone of Syrian Architecture.
