捷克事务所KOGAA设计的GROUNDS咖啡中心藏在布拉格Karlín开发区的街道院落中。在这片充满活力的办公居住区,店铺为街区的人们提供了自制烘焙咖啡。为了节约成本并深入思考建筑与空间的关系,建筑师和咖啡社的工作人员共同合作,手工作业,完成了整个建设过程。建筑师在空间内植入半透明模块,将不同功能进行整合,并巧妙利用天窗,使不同区域都能享受到充足的光照。
Designed by Czech studio KOGAA, GROUNDS is a coffee hub in Prague’s developing area of Karlín. Tucked inside an inner yard of a vibrant office and residential street, the hub works as a neighborhood cafe where coffee is being served straight from its own roastery. In order to cut the costs but also learn how the architecture and spaces relate to their production processes, the construction was made hands-on and designed-by-building together with the coffee community running the place. Taking advantage of the overhead natural light, a translucent duplex object allows light through to the various functions of the hub, all integrated and connected within the unit.

入口处的空间用于制作咖啡,包含咖啡豆的存储、烘焙与清洁、包装等一系列流程。木构架内部形成了专门的咖啡品鉴区,不仅可作为专业的咖啡器材陈列室,也可用于举办教育研讨会和竞赛等活动。
The further spaces from the entrance are dedicated to the in-house coffee production: from the storing of the raw beans to the roasting, cleaning, and packaging processes. The built-in inner room is made for the coffee testing, functioning both as the showroom of the professional barista machines and where educational workshops and competitions are taking place.

正对入口的一侧是购买、享用咖啡的用餐区。中央模块与墙壁之间悬挂着橘色的金属楼梯,与上层波纹状有机塑料围合的区域相连。遵循绿色有机的设计原则,建筑师以丰富的绿植装点角落,为室内提供了天然的空气净化器和吸尘器,更有利于保持咖啡生产时的空气湿度。
The object’s front side towards the entrance is dedicated to the cafeteria and the sale of the coffee to the final users. Towards the sidewall, a suspended tangerine-colored metal staircase leads to the upper working space, enveloped by an organically shaped corrugated plastic wall. The organically designed plan allows nooks in which a variety of plants are growing and working as a source of natural air purifiers, dust collectors, and helping to keep a balance in the levels of humidity needed for the coffee processes.

内部建材的80%都采用了回收利用的拆除材料,旨在回应减少建筑废料的主题。室内家具中,经过粉刷处理的工业吊灯回收自弃置的武器工厂,咖啡桌由混凝土现场浇制,沿墙壁布置的长凳和垂直商品架也都采用了重复利用的木材。定制的吧台四周环绕着未加涂层的波纹金属板,精心推敲的切割比例能够适应不同咖啡器具的尺寸。
The interior was built by 80% construction site waste of a previously dismantled project, applying the architect’s objective on reducing the issues related to construction site waste in the country. The suspended lights are recovered and painted industrial lamps from an inactive weapons factory, while the coffee tables are hand-made concrete pieces manufactured on-site, as well as the wooden bench running along the wall and the vertical merchandise wall. The bar is made of uncoated corrugated metal sheets and the custom metalworking desk was cut-out to fit all the coffee fixtures needed for the serving process.

项目源于烘焙公司Rusty Nails和咖啡生产商Rene Kralovič的联合创想,后者还曾成功策划了许多酒店项目。GROUNDS咖啡中心旨在向公众展示烘焙的概念,并为咖啡师和专家们提供不断成长,融入社区的平台。
The project is the brainchild of roasting company Rusty Nails coffee producer Rene Kralovič, who is behind various successful hospitality projects in the Czech Republic. The idea here was to expand the concept of a roastery to the public, as well as being a platform for baristas and coffee experts to educate themselves and be part of a community.
