联图设计携手Black Star Pastry主理人兼创意总监Louis Li，把位于愚园路的一幢红砖老洋房打造为Black Star Pastry中国首家旗舰店。店内空间一分为二，一层作为Black Star Pastry的蛋糕和咖啡零售区，二层则是品牌的全新餐饮空间——Black Star Gallery。两个空间相互叠加，构建出集餐饮、设计、艺术和生活方式于一身的未来消费综合体。

Linehouse worked in collaboration with Louis Li, principal and creative director of Black Star Pastry, to convert a red-brick old villa on Yuyuan Road, Shanghai into Black Star Pastry’s first flagship store in China. Conceived as two venues over two floors, the ground floor operates as Black Star Pastry’s cake and coffee retail space, while the second floor reveals a new dining space for the brand – Black Star Gallery. Combination of the two spaces creates a futuristic retail complex that encompasses dining, design, art, and lifestyle.

Black Star Pastry于2008年在悉尼创立。由Black Star Pastry原创的草莓西瓜蛋糕，被纽约时报评为“Instagram全球曝光率最高的蛋糕”。一楼的蛋糕店以“星际穿越”为故事线，空间中央的台面上是品牌标志性的磁悬浮展示太空舱， 9个太空舱中漂浮旋转着9款上海首发单品。空间元素巧妙融入了重力与失重的对比，不锈钢展示架上固定成千上万颗陨石，陨石次第而上，以蜿蜒之势飞向天花板，宛如太空中静止。长桌的边缘点缀着一句话“We Are All Just Stardust”（你我皆星尘），桌边的字母顺着重力流淌而下，完成了从具象到抽象的转变。一楼其余区域为零售区，备有咖啡豆和品牌周边服饰。这是第一家位于澳大利亚之外的Black Star Pastry旗舰门店，启用了全新品牌视觉方案，包括由全球超人气插画家Noritake创作的品牌形象。Noritake笔下的男孩和刺猬加入了黑色星星的元素，使得这两个形象与Black Star的品牌名和气质融为一体。

Black Star Pastry was founded in Sydney in 2008 and is the creator of the Strawberry Watermelon Cake. According to New York Times, it is the world’s most Instagrammed cake. – The ground floor pastry store is themed around the narrative Interstellar Travel, the iconic maglev display at the centre features nine revolving and levitating space capsules, displaying 9 cakes exclusively launched in Shanghai. It is an exploration of gravity vs weightlessness. Stainless-steel shelves holding thousands of meteorites, ascend, bend and turn towards the ceiling creating the illusion of rocks transfixed in space. The phrase ‘we are all just stardust’ can be found lining the edges of the communal tables – each letter seemingly dripping off the edge of the table following gravity, marking the transition from the concrete to the abstract. Elsewhere, retail areas are spread throughout the ground floor, stocked with coffee beans and apparel. The first flagship store outside of Australia, it features Black Star Pastry’s new branding, with illustrations by one of the world’s most popular illustrator, Noritake. Accompanied by black stars, the boy and hedgehog characters are connected to the Black Star name and narrative.

进入一楼让人有种登上宇宙飞船的莫名悸动，坐上这艘宇宙飞船，便能达到位于二楼的平行宇宙。沿着新建的一体式混凝土水磨石楼梯，步入Black Star Gallery：一个策展式餐饮空间。以“幻土”（Meta Habitat）为主题，委托四位国际新兴艺术家Rowan Corkill、Olivia Steele、Debbie Lawson创作了四组场域定制作品。这些艺术作品集合在一起，营造了一个寓言般的栖息地。Meta这一词根源自古希腊语，意为“之后”或“超越”，在这里，由于时空的错位，所有与自然世界相关的寻常物体，在形态上产生了不同程度的幻化。悄然隐匿于波斯地毯中的雄鹿、试图挣脱桎梏肆意生长的树木、光华夺目的潺潺水流、周身被叶子包裹的躯体，每一件作品单独看来都是一副丰富而纯净的景观，叠加在一起共同创造了一个寓言般的栖息地。在这里，现实的存在感逐渐褪去，禅意的假设变得司空见惯。

The ground floor stirs up the incredible sensation of being aboard a spaceship, transporting you to a parallel universe upstairs. A new staircase clad in rough cast concrete terrazzo transports guests to the Black Star Gallery; an exhibition-style dining space – themed meta habitat – featuring artworks by four emerging international artists. Rowan Corkill, Olivia Steele, Debbie Lawson and Naoko Ito created four site-specific works. The collection of artworks together create a fabled habitat. A root word with Greek origins, ‘Meta’ means “after” or “beyond”. Here, ordinary and familiar objects related to human civilization are transformed by the distortion of time and space into metamorphic states. The art collection depicts roaming deer, trapped tree branches, glowing water streams, and bodies covered in withered leaves. Together it creates a fabled habitat that is sinister yet fantastical – a rich and pure landscape where the unusual and the unexpected is commonplace.

白天的画廊是下午茶廊，夜间则化身为鸡尾酒吧。金属网格天花和混凝土水磨石地板增加了空间的粗野主义气息，构建出一种仿若置身于美术馆的错觉。

The gallery is a tearoom in the afternoon and a cocktail lounge by night. The ceiling is lined in metal grid. The floor is a rough concrete cast terrazzo tile, giving the space a hint of wildness and creating a museum like mood for the art.

二楼还有一间取名为There There的包厢，内设私人吧台，经酸蚀刻处理的蓝色金属和深蓝色天鹅绒幕帘赋予包厢良好的私密性。黑色木地板延伸至墙面，与空间里裸露的混凝土形成鲜明对比。不锈钢曲面背景墙则用于展示酒品。

A private room named There There, featuring an intimate bar wrapped in acid etched blue metal, is enclosed with a deep blue velvet curtain. A black timber floor folds up onto the walls sits in contrast against the exposed concrete of the existing site. A stainless-steel curved backdrop holds the wines on display.

艺术家自述
Artist Statements

氏族的聚集 | The Gathering of the Clan

三只雄鹿分别从波斯地毯中走出来，平面图案悄然之间仿佛被赋予了生命。雄鹿隐匿于地毯之后，如同森林里的动物，伪装在树木后面和沼泽地中。与此同时，波斯风格的地毯进一步增添了隐秘的色彩，既遮掩又加强了动物的形态。

The Gathering of the Clans (2021) is the latest in a series of covered sculptures depicting flora and fauna. In it, three stags each emerge out of a rug, as if the pattern has become quietly and magically animated. The stags hide and re-emerge from their carpets like animals in the woods, camouflaged behind the trees and among the glades. The use of Persian-style patterned carpets both hides and enhances the animal forms.

关联 | Interrelation

四组大型玻璃樽悬挂装置中装有上海本地的香樟树枝，通过艺术家精准的摆列，制造出连贯又断续的视觉误差。作品展示着自然和人造间抗衡的张力，消解了日常生活与宏观事物之间的界限。

Four large, suspended glass jars encased camphor tree branches sourced from Shanghai, through the artist’s careful arrangement, the work creates a consistent yet interrupted visual illusion. The work captures the tension between nature and manmade forces, blurring the boundary between ordinary and extraordinary.

——伊藤尚子，Naoko Ito

离层，2016 | Abscission. 2016

Rowan Corkill的摄影作品聚焦人与自然的关系，离层是植物每年秋天叶子脱落的过程，在春天新叶子萌芽之前，先把旧的叶子摒去。这种恢复活力的自然行为与人类复活或洗礼的习俗相似，从衰退中崛起，摆脱瑕疵和缺陷，试图改善自己。

Photography by Rowan Corkill focuses on mankind’s relationship with nature. Abscission is the process by which plants shed leaves each fall, removing the old before a regrowth of the new in spring. This natural act of rejuvenation is akin to human ideas of resurrection or ablution, rising from decay and ridding oneself of our wrongdoings in an attempt to better ourselves.

——罗文·科契尔，Rowan Corkill

水无需指引 | Water Needs No Guidance

这件霓虹装置作品将水作为一种善变的象征来探讨。三组发光的水流，在垂直和水平不同的维度上纵横交错，创作时使用的五金材料都是在欧洲当地寻获的古董，神秘的铭文“水无需指引”镌刻在桶内的圆形镜面上，向上形成倒影。艺术家通过此案表达了水有诸多状态，无需操纵就可适应它所处的周遭环境。

In this neon installation, Olivia Steele explores water as a mercurial emblem of transformation. Three interconnected illuminated streams – two vertical and one horizontal to vertical streams – are all made from vintage materials sourced throughout Europe. The one clandestine inscription is the piece’s namesake, reading “Water Needs No Guidance,” engraved on a mirror inside the bucket which creates a reflection of what’s above. Through this work, the artist tells us that water takes on many states and can acclimate to the environment that it’s in without manipulation or provocation.

——奥利维亚·斯蒂尔，Olivia Steele
