Castro Café/Romi Khosla Design Studios

4. Introduction:-
• Architect:- Romi Khosla Design Studios
• Location:- New Delhi
• Category:- Educational Architecture
• Chief Architects:- Romi khosla and Martand Khosla
• Design Team:- Praveen Rajput and Maulik Bansal
• Total Area:- 890.00 sqm
• Project Year :- 2010

7. Breif Description:-
• A Cafeteria in a University Campus located near Auditorium, Cultural Center, Mass communication, was expected to
become hub of all social activities of the Campus. Due to the extreme climatic conditions of New Delhi, where the
summer sees temperatures of above 45 degrees centigrade, and the winters often see temperatures below 5 degree
centigrade.
• The building block has a kitchen block to the east, which is a fully enclosed space to cook and serve in. As One walks
along the length of the building westwards, initially the eating enclosure is defined by two walls and a roof, further still the
sense of interior is defined by one wall and the roof, further still the space is articulated by only one wall, and yet further
still, there is only the floor, and then that too stops continuing.
• Throughout this changing sense of interior and exterior, the eating surface and the seating surfaces continue, almost
acting like stitches that tie this entire space together.
• The idea was to try and blur the boundaries between inside and outside, where these undefined boundaries act as a
negotiator between the user and the climate of Delhi.
• All the elements of the building are defined distinctly and independent from each other. The walls don’t touch the floor
and the roof does not touch the walls.
• This was the first steel building built at the university campus.

Pajot School Canteen/Ateleir 208

16. Introduction:-
• Architects:- Atelier 208
• Location:- Rue Emile Pajot, 77340 Pontault-Combault, France
• Design Team:- Chloé & Meyer OIKNINE, Julie BENOIT, N. Maslier, A. Larrieu,
V. Delfaud
• Project Year:- 2013
• Area:- 700.00 sqm
• Category:- Dining Hall
• Photographs:- Alexis Leclercq

18. Breif Description:-
• The project is based on reorganizing the school complex with the construction of a new canteen and the
redefinition of the exterior spaces, it offers a playful environment and two attractive dining rooms for the pupils.
The demolition of the existing canteen allowed the repositioning of the new building through a spatial
configuration focused on learning. It uses natural lighting, liberates the playground and introduces a kitchen
garden, optimizes the circulations of the pupils and is committed to environmental and durability objectives.
• From a steel and concrete frame, the envelope speaks through the children's language and plays a major role in the
way children perceive the place. The origami like roof folds and unfolds in order to let light penetrate at the heart
of the two dining rooms, thus giving them various ambiences throughout the day. The origami inspired roof was
conceived to bring a dynamic to the project. Origami emphasizes imagination, creativity and a certain ingenuity.
The shape of the roof plays a major role in the way children perceive the building.
• The exterior synthetic grass coating on the façades occasionally extends on the ground and enhances the children's
creativity. Considering the children's perception of the building, the façades reveal large views onto the kitchen
garden and the playground from all sides.

CHEGS Campus Canteen/KNOWSPACE

27. Introduction:-
Architects:- KNOWSPACE
Location:- Baoding, Heibei, China
Category:- Renovation
Architect in charge:- Erhard An-He Kinzelbach Architect BDA
Project Year:- 2014
Area:- 660.00 sqm
Photographs:- Le Hengzhong

31. Brief Description:-
• The originally planned canteen in the new office building’s basement did not gain permission to operate, the institute had
to look for an alternative location on the campus. A brick storage building from the 70s in the backward had to make
place for a new building, but the planning department restricted the footprint of the new volume to match the old
footprint. As a consequence, the canteen is a simple cubic volume. Both floors, due to functional requirements, are
flexible single spaces. The ground floor houses the employees’ canteen with the kitchen and a separate VIP dining room,
and the first floor mainly consists of a multi-purpose space that can be equally used to play table-tennis or to hold lectures
and presentations with a stage and an audience. The main twin stairs with 3 runs each that separate entering and leaving
traffic and an additional fire stair connect the two floors.
• The main spaces are zoned and differentiated through a performative facade. It consists of 2 layers: while an inner layer
with a series of floor to ceiling glass windows provides climatic separation, the outer layer is a screen-like perforated stone
facade with gradually varying degrees of opening, both servind as a shading and a opening device. In specific occasions,
large openings cut through the stone facade and provide views of the outside and inside alike. The stone wall stands
independently and has a depth of 22cm which articulates its materiality. As one of the main areas for the institute’s field
research is Xinjiang, the field of perforations in the façade may be seen as an interpretation of the Xinjiang raisin drying
houses, only that the more permanent stone brick substitutes the original rammed earth brick material. The yellow
granite’s surface is hammered or, as they say in China, treated like a lychee-skin. The landscaping integrates a basketball
court and an adjacent existing air raid shelter that sticks out of the ground.

Café loge/The Cornerz + KODE Architects

36. Introduction:-
• Architect:- KODE Architects, The Cornerz
• Location:-Sampyeong-dong 656 Bundang-gu Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, Seoul, South
Korea
• Project Year:- 2018
• Lead Architects:- The Cornerz (Hong jong-hwa, Lee ji-hong) , Kode Architects (Kim
min-ho)
• Category:- Coffee Shop
• Area:- 100.00 sqm
• Photographs:- Shin Kyung Sub

37. Plan:-

38. Brief Description:-• Café Loge is located on the first floor of a typical office building in a commercial area in East Pangyo, Republic of Korea.
The upper part is enveloped with a curtain wall, and the lower part is covered with a dark stone finish, transparent glass,
and an exaggerated sign, so it represents a newtown but dry commercial street. Café Loge needed to get out of this
existing commercial street, boldly. A boundary of unconventional space was made in the dull city center, using arches that
could have firm formal vocabularies based on white mosaic tiles with a solid, strong property instead of transparent
material called glass, and through the glass arch, bluish green colored interior space and nature in the raw could be seen
from the street.
• The indoor space was designed to be able to provide a feeling as if one was in a little forest. Plant boxes in various shapes
were installed here and there in the café, and a variety of flora were planted to enhance the image of a forest. The wall
surface was finished, centering around the doors and the part of the beginning of the curved surface of the window arch
while the lower part was finished with white color to bring the flora into relief, and the upper part was finished in dark
green color to enrich the space. The ceiling was designed in an inverted arch form that would further build up the
atmosphere of the forest, visually interrupting the equipment pipes like ducts on the exposed ceiling, while the floor
emphasized the feel of the forest, using eco-friendly timber.
• For the right wall of the café entrance, a display wall was planned, which could promote EROM’s uncooked food
ingredient. On the 21 round, bored display spaces, raw materials of various uncooked foods would be displayed, and the
exhibits would stand out further through the soft light from the white background and the back side. Plant boxes were
installed at the bottom of the display wall, emphasizing the feel of raw materials made in nature and being in harmony
with the forest image of the entire space.

Café Murasaki/ FATTSTUDIO

43. Introduction:-
• Architect:- FATTSTUDIO
• Location:- Bangkok, Thailand
• Category:- Interiors Architecture
• Design Team:- Wattikon Kosonkit with Supanna Chanpensri, Dolada Sriwattanatrakul and Kittiya
Ninjeiranai.
• Area:- 128.00 sqm
• Project Year:- 2015

45. Brief Description:-
• Café Murasaki initiated by the client’s proposal, which planed to renovate a pair of row houses to be the café. In the
beginning, the functions are not specific. Then, the first idea started from a loca-on that standing on the suburban
area of Bangkok, due to the reason of hard access. Each function is created under the idea of flexibility which could
adapt in various usability such as “coffee shop” that provided space for co-working, meeting or relaxing in the
morning, “mini bar” that provide space for recessing or socialize.

46. Café Murasaki has divided into two areas. The high ceiling area is the common one which consists of many activities. By
the way, steel frame that hanging above the counter is not only aesthetically designed, it used to represent the usability in
the café. In daily hours, the steel frame is used to hang the menu and glasses, but it has possibilities to transform to place
for lightning installation when the party started. Another remaining area with low ceiling is proposed to be privacy, space
for meeting or enjoying side dish.
