有盐是受到日本美学影响的一间法式面包店，由受过日本面包训练的一对当地夫妻经营，力求给宁波带来新鲜口感的产品。店铺坐落于宁波的住宅区域，这次对店铺的室内及外立面作出一次全新的重装。店铺的主人每天亲自在店里烘培面包，他想要创造出一个可以提供高质量产品并可以让周围的人们进行社交的一个独特的空间。

A French bakery inspired by a Japanese aesthetic. This authentic bakery in Ningbo is run by a local couple whose Japanese bread training brings a refreshing twist to their flavours and products.

Located within an established residential area, this neighbourhood bakery undertook a complete refresh of their interior and façade. The owners, who bake daily onsite, wanted to create a unique space for people to come and hang out while continuing to provide the neighbourhood with a quality product.

 

 

外立面简单地使用浅灰色石膏、灰绿色瓷砖和极简白色标牌，突出现代和极简的特点，使店铺显得与周围的环境与众不同。暖色木框玻璃的厨房隔墙使客人能直接看到面包店的厨房空间。店主喜欢日式极简的中世纪家具，使整体设计走向变得简单和干净，使空间的重点变成产品本身。

Keeping it modern and clean-lined, the façade is simple with light grey plaster, pale green tiles, and minimal white signage, allowing it to stand out from the adjacent local stores. Warm coloured, wooden joinery opens to the street, allowing views straight into the working area of the bakery. The owners love of mid-century furniture and Japanese minimalism guided the design’s simplicity and clean-lined style. This restraint helped us to create a space that was consistent and well-integrated, giving greater focus to the product.

 

 

设计师想通过使用温暖柔软的材料来平衡坚硬做旧的元素，创造出一个舒适的令人愉悦的空间。 深色胡桃木、精致的黄铜和做旧的混凝土墙面作为面包产品展示的背景，给空间带来了肌理感。

It was important to retain a simple material palette that balanced the hard, distressed elements with softer, warm colour, creating an environment that was inviting and comfortable for people to enjoy. Rich walnut, antiqued brass and distressed concrete walls give a rustic and textured backdrop to the authentic bread products made here. 

 

 

对于客户来说，从顾客空间能看到面包烤箱和面包产品是至关重要的。Hcreates打开空间的中央，使空间变得通透明亮。 设计上的最大挑战是后期面包烤箱可能需要在不破坏装修本身被移出进行维护，设计师将厨房的墙、层板、前方的展示柜都做成可移动的。面包产品被整齐地展示在长形柜台上，使顾客能从街道直接被吸引进店铺。

It was crucial for the client that the bread oven and product was visible from the customer space. hcreates opened the middle of the space to allow views down and into the production areas with counter and seating along the sides. One of the challenges involving the bread oven was being able to move it in and out, without having to break down any of the fit-out. To address this within the narrow shop space, hcreates made the kitchen wall, shelving, and front of house display counters, all easily removable. The product display required each item to be laid out in a row, this made for a long display counter which we placed at the end of the space allowing visibility from the street.

 

 

现有的店铺具有通高的双层空间，这给设计带来了很多可能性。设计师在外立面使用了大型折叠窗连接室内外空间，窗子的两侧都设置了座位。现有的夹层被延申出来，变成了一个顾客可以安静用餐的小角落。利用现有的高度，设计师在外立面上方开了个天窗，使自然光线可以穿透进空间，给空间带来明亮的氛围。

One of the unique existing features was the double-height space. This allowed for impactful design over the counter and an uplifting entry experience. Large folding windows at the front open the façade and connect to the small front terrace creating seating on either side. The existing mezzanine was reconfigured to extend the seating, creating a cosy nook for customers to people watch from above or enjoy a quiet corner. Using the height, hcreates opened more windows in the façade allowing light to filter in, creating an atmosphere filled with beautiful, natural light.
