运用纯粹几何形状，LOCURA酒吧-设计风向

位于澳大利亚拜伦湾的这家墨西哥餐馆被称为Locura，它提供美味的食物、可口的饮料和美妙的音乐。简单的内部装饰遵循同样的简约精神，保留完整的设计想法，纯粹的几何形状和简单的装饰让人感觉既低调又有意义。

Dubbed ‘Locura’ (Madness in Spanish), the casual Mexican eatery celebrates fine and honest food, delicious drinks, and good music. The modest interior follows the same ethos, preserving the integrity of intent, pure geometries, and simple finishes that feel equal parts humble and meaningful.

触觉材料给这个几乎没有装饰的空间带来温暖、质感和色彩。精心设计的灯光营造出诱人的氛围。酒吧的环境并不会吸引顾客的注意力，而是愉快地融入到背景中，产生一种放松和特别的体验，与该地区的其他场所略有不同。

Tactile materials bring warmth, texture, and colour to the mostly undecorated space. Well considered lighting creates an inviting mood and ambience. The physical setting of the bar doesn’t compete to command the attention of the patrons but happily dissolves into the background, supporting and facilitating an experience that feels laid back and special, and a little different to other venues in the area.

工作室的目的是创造一种对“墨西哥餐厅”的现代诠释，避免空间刻意简单化或在文化上对其南美文化的直接引用。相反，该设计谨慎地参考了墨西哥城各处小型夜场的真实特征和原始美。

Pattern Studio’s response was to create a contemporary interpretation of a ‘Mexican restaurant’, deliberately staying clear of simplistic or culturally-appropriated references to South American culture. Instead, the design discretely references the genuine character and raw beauty of small, late-night venues found across Mexico City.

空间灵感来自于粗糙和原始的城市肌理，基础材料包括混凝土、灰砖和软钢。天然石材和皮革饰面，为空间增添精致感，使人们在空间中感到舒适。家具和细木工制品的布局，包括专利作品和定制的设计作品的组合，营造了简单的空间氛围。

Inspired by rough and raw urban textures, the base materials palette embraces concrete, grey brick, and mild steel. Natural stone and leather soften the finishes, adding a sense of sophistication and ensuring the comfort of those in the space is considered. The layout of furniture and joinery, including a mix of proprietary and custom designed pieces, is uncomplicated so as not to clutter the space.

室内基本上没有装修，相反，视觉冲击来自于空间中几何形状和重复元素的运用，如砖砌条形酒吧字体的线性图案，或经典圆形壁灯的重复装饰。通过装饰灯具和隐藏的LED条形灯营造出一种柔和环境的灯光氛围，暗示着这里可能会发生一些特别的事情。

The interior is mainly undecorated. Instead, visual impact arises from geometry and repetition like the linear pattern of the brick-clad bar font, or the repeat of the classic round wall sconces. Soft and ambient illumination by decorative light fittings and concealed LED strip lights create the kind of mood that suggests something special might well happen here.

通过James Turrell风格灯光的指引，在洗手间中可以找到现代主义墨西哥建筑师Luis Barragan运用大胆色彩的作品。顾客从灯光昏暗且相对朴素的酒吧空间进入色彩丰富的浴室时，会感受到出人意料的空间效果。墙壁和天花板上的饰面面采用白色处理，白色桦木胶合板隔板可以使彩色LED照射所有表面，将所有表面都浸入全彩色之中。这种照明系统控制允许将色调设置为任意RBG值，使场地能够在任何时间快速改变空间的情绪。条形led灯被小心地放置在隔板的顶部，使得直接光源被隐藏，空间沐浴在柔和的色调中。

A playful reference to the works of Modernist Mexican architect Luis Barragan‘s bold use of colour can be found in the venue’s restrooms, delivered via a James Turrell-inspired light installation. This gesture comes as an unexpected surprise as patrons travel from the moodily-lit and relatively unadorned bar space into the richly coloured bathrooms. A white treatment to the finishes on walls and ceiling, along with whitewashed birch plywood partitions allows coloured LEDs to wash all the surfaces, immersing everything within the space in full colour. This lighting system control allows the tone to be set to any RBG value, enabling the venue to quickly change the mood in the spaces at any time. Strip LEDs are carefully located along the tops of partitions ensuring the direct light source is concealed, and space is bathed in a soft hue.

作为拜伦湾当地人，团队意识到需要一个不同于海湾目前场所的酒吧空间，那里有明亮的白色空间。这种对当地夜生活的补充为游客提供了一种既轻松又特别的选择，其设计和装饰柔和地融入空间背景中，让您体验到美味的食物、饮料和音乐。

As Byron Bay locals, Pattern Studio recognised the need for a venue a little different than what’s currently on offer in the Bay where bright, white, rendered spaces are aplenty. This addition to the local nightlife offers visitors an alternative that’s both relaxed and special, where the design and décor dissolve softly into the background, allowing the experience of excellent food, drink, and music to shine.
