项目位于长沙市雨花区。建筑师意在为之创造一个优雅的且受欢迎的空间，引进一种极具个性化的西方与东方的融合风格，将意大利南部马瑟西亚和东南亚国家的内部装饰特点结合在一起。这个设计是根据主人的个性设计而来的，她是一位对旅行和咖啡有着爱好的且非常有品位的女士。

The project is located in Changsha city，Yuhua district.We intended to create an elegant and welcoming space, introducing a personal western/eastern fusion style, with southern Italy’s masseria and South East Asian Countries interiors features combined together. The design is tailored on the owner personality, a tasteful lady with the hobby of traveling and the love for coffee.

101咖啡的店面是狭长型，并且底部的自然光线非常差，因此合理安排空间就成为了一种挑战。建筑师决定在底部最暗的地方设置一个会客室，通过应用大量的吊灯并以方形的竹子天花作为亮点，最终把最薄弱的地方变成了空间中的亮点。这样，就可以让顾客找到一个舒适的地方就座。

The original layout is narrow and mostly developed in length, with a considerably lack of natural illumination on the bottom area. This was a challenge when it came to arrange the space properly. We decided to locate a living room on the bottom of the plot, in the darkest area. We introduced plenty of pendant lamps, dropping from a square bamboo ceiling as the space focus point. The result is that we turned the weakest point of the plot into the spotlight. That leads customers to sit there and find a comfortable place in the otherwise dead area.

会客室设置在对外的大玻璃房内，设置在这里的意图是为了给过路的人们展示一种咖啡的生活形态。在中国的这个地区，喝咖啡仍不是一个日常的生活习惯，而这里带来一种橱窗式购物的感觉，不仅能让人们对咖啡文化进行了解，还能吸引他们走进咖啡馆喝杯咖啡。

The same living room arrangement is displayed from the surface big glass window to the outside. The intent here is to live-stream the “Cafe’ lifestyle” to people passing by. In this part of China where coffee drinking is still considered not a familiar habit, this works as an effective “shopping window”. It both educates people to the Coffee Culture and invites them to walk inside for a cup of Coffee.
