香港天星码头 %Arabica 咖啡店

网红咖啡%Arabica 的新店位于香港维多利亚港天星码头大楼顶层，面积仅为17平方米，由日本工作室Puddle设计，室内白色、混凝土和轻质木材表面与大楼现有结构相匹配。

Japanese studio Puddle has designed a coffee shop inside a ferry terminal building in Hong Kong’s Kowloon area, with white, concrete and light wood surfaces to match the existing structure.The tiny cafe, % Arabica, measures 17 square metres and is located on the top level of the Star Ferry Terminal Building on the Kowloon side of Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour.

发光的 “%” logo放置在入口处的白色店面招牌上，招牌隐藏了咖啡馆的卷帘门。

The entrance is defined by a glowing % logo glows, placed across a white built-in unit that conceals the cafe’s roller shutter front facade.

咖啡店里面是一个不大不小的方形房间，除了一个操作台外，几乎什么都没有。在这里，员工可以接待顾客，处理付款和准备咖啡。橱柜被淡绿色瓷砖包裹着，白色的台面放置在窗户墙前，墙上还有一个大大的%标志。

Inside is a modest, square room with hardly anything on its floors, except for a counter that houses all of the cafe’s workings. From here, employees greet customers, processes payments and prepare the coffee.The cabinet is wrapped in pale green tiles with a white countertop, and positioned in front of a windowed wall that has another large % logo across it.

店面品牌是Puddle设计咖啡店的关键元素。地板上、定制雨伞上，以及其他品牌产品上，也可以看到小小的标志设计。

Branding is a key element to Puddle’s design of the coffee shop. Small graphic touches can also be seen on the floor, across custom-made umbrellas, and on other branded products.

后墙上覆盖着的混凝土，与地面材料相匹配，与建筑的其他部分无缝地融合在一起。墙壁上排列着许多玻璃架子、木支架，对称地展示着咖啡袋。除了玻璃墙和混凝土墙，咖啡馆里的另一面墙壁采用的是用浅色木板，下面是配套的长凳。这种自然材料的引入有助于软化空间的工业特性。

A rear cwall is covered in concrete to match the floors, which seamlessly blend in with the rest of the building. Arranged across the wall are numerous glass shelves with wooden supports, which symmetrically display coffee bags.Aside from the glass facade and roller front, the only other wall in the cafe is covered in light wood boards, with a matching built-in bench below. This introduction of a natural material helps to soften the project’s industrial character.
