Jury Cafe，澳大利亚 / Biasol

澳大利亚 Biasol 给gooood分享他们位于墨尔本的新作Jury Cafe，一间在过去老监狱内的咖啡馆。更多请至： Biasol on gooood 

这座监狱叫Pentridge监狱，已经在1997年退役，现在是Pentridge村。设计师希望尊重监狱过去的历史，同时也希望注入新元素让顾客为之享受。设计师把温暖的木材和明亮的色彩运用在原本灰暗的空间中，在新粉刷的混凝土墙壁上用胶合板组合出色彩明快的几何图案，产生俏皮的效果，让空间从黑暗变得充满希望与乐趣。设计师也充分吕勇绿色植物点缀房间。桌子椅子也为定做。最后，连澳大利亚传奇犯人Chopper Read也经常光顾这里。

form the designer:

Jury Cafe is located within the bluestone walls of a Melbourne historical site: Pentridge Village – formerly Pentridge Prison. The prison was decommissioned in 1997.

As an interior design project, Jury presented several unique challenges to our studio: we wanted to respect its dark past as a prison, and we also wanted to breathe new life into the cafe for its patrons to enjoy.

The theme of irreverence led us to play with ideas – ideas that created a contrast between dark bluestone walls and a palette of bright colors and blond timbers. Along with these ideas of colour, we used a mix of raw materials, plywood, structural timbers and concrete that allowed us to form a geometric colour pattern within the feature wall of Jury. This structure created a playful effect, one that brought the site to life and allowed it to move on from its dark past, as well as embrace a sense of fun for the future.

We softened the space further by adding greenery from Pop Plant; we also designed bespoke tables and stools that are, again, all made from natural materials.

The result is a cafe that even Chopper Read would have frequented during his time in ‘H’ division.
