“我们不兜售情怀，只想还原一碗面应有的味道。”年轻的80后夫妻委托项目时的这句话打动了设计师。

“We’re not selling nostalgia; we just want to restore the classic bowl of noodles to its original essence and flavor.” This simple statement from the young couple who commissioned the project captured the designer’s imagination.

不规整场地的“弊”
The challenges of an irregularly shaped venue

项目场所处于商场转角位，被相邻的店铺相夹，露出一个狭窄的门面，步入体验难免局促。对于一家分寸必争的小店，设计师反其道而行，退让出狭小的门头作为开放式的点单收银区和等座区，以欢迎的姿态“迎接顾客回家吃面”，一侧的白墙上一首小诗描绘面馆的品牌故事。

Tightly sandwiched between adjacent shops, a storefront too narrow for comfort–or comfortable entrance–emerges from a corner in an urban shopping mall. For a small venue as such where every inch counts, the designer made a virtue of the limited frontage by pulling the storefront inboard, resulting in an expansive, welcoming foyer. Flanked by the cashier’s booth and waiting area, the foyer provides the much needed spatial “pause” to relax and heighten the entry experience. With the story of the brand in prose engraved in the backdrop, the hospitable ambience “beckons the customer home” to savor homemade noodles.

▼ 入口收银台和等候区，用来分隔就餐区的门上中下采用三种不同透明度的材料，既保持了空间的通透感又保证的就餐的私密性，cashier and waiting area at the entrance, the partition is composed of three parts in different transparency, keeping the space open while ensuring the privacy of the dining area

退居其后的正式空间划分为后厨储藏区和就餐区，中间以开放式厨房链接两者，顾客在等餐间隙可以清楚的观看面条的制作，上汤，装盘，配浇头。一层清透的玻璃让顾客与主厨之间有了交流，拿到手里的面自然有了温度，多了安心。

An open kitchen stands at the heart of this venue, linking the back-of-house with the dining area. Transparent glass between the customer and the chef allows the customer to experience the entire process of noodle making, whilst waiting to be served, and renders the dining experience all the more home-like and satisfying.

专心吃一碗面
Enjoying a bowl of noodles

两侧高吧台顺着墙体流线排布，高效简单。在我们固有的概念里，对着墙壁吃面不免局促孤单，而这正是店主与设计师想传达的理念“专心吃好一碗面”，对着水泥墙面，吊着一盏温暖小灯，照亮眼前一碗香气四溢的面，此刻心里的念头就是享受这碗面带来的满足。

High chairs and counter line the side walls in a simple and efficient manner. Isolated as it may seem to eat facing the wall, it underscores the essence of the design and achieves what both the owner and designer had in mind: A neutral setting dedicated to the simple ritual of “enjoying a bowl of noodles” undistracted, with a lamp overhead to illuminate the steaming fragrant bowl of noodles and what fulfillment it brings.

真实材料，不失匠心
Authentic materials and timeless craftsmanship

钢板酸洗氧化，随着时间的推移产生色泽变化，工匠的手工刷洗留下泼墨般的痕迹；硅钙板防潮耐污与水泥地坪自然衔接；白橡木色泽清雅，触感温润；白墙腻子留下工匠手刷横纹，呼应空间横向光带，这些细节对抗着现代工业的批量生产，以原始的手工方式一遍一遍涂刷打磨，设计师意图抛弃快餐式风格化的堆砌，还原室内空间的本质与真实。

Oxidized steel plate that changes color over time, revealing traces of ink-like scrub marks left behind by artisans. Moisture resistant calcium silicate cement board flush joined with floor surface. White oak table and counter tops, elegant in color and gentle to the touch. Brush strokes on the wall echo the concealed horizontal strip lights. These details resist modern industrial mass production in favor of the old-fashioned manual sanding and brushing. Forsaking the fast food approach, the designer restores spatial integrity to the interior.
