DESIGN  ANALYSIS

_


This time, Senga planted its new shop on the shore of the blue Dongqian Lake - Chating - Freedom of the waterfront ("Chating": the original ancient name of the village, which is still in use today), which is located in the southwest of the Dongqian Lake on the slope overlooking the Qianhu Lake to the east. Dongqian Lake is a natural lagoon formed by geological movement in ancient times, and was once praised by Mr Guo Moruo as "the scenery of West Lake and the spirit of Taihu Lake". Such a unique natural landscape allows the viewer to encompass the scenery of the lake and the mountains when raising his or her eyes!


此次森加将它将新店栽植进了湛蓝的东钱湖岸边 ——茶亭·自由之滨(“茶亭”:原为村地古名,沿用至今),位于东钱湖西南边的山坡上,向东俯瞰钱湖。
东钱湖是远古时期地质运动形成的天然泻湖,曾被郭沫若先生誉为“西湖风光,太湖气魄”,如此得天独厚的自然景观,让观者在抬眼间就能包揽湖光山色!


Lighting analysis of the building where Senga is located shows that natural lighting is mainly diffuse throughout the day, with direct light entering the room in the evening.
Analysing the advantages and disadvantages of daylighting, we can see:
Advantages: The advantage of diffuse sunlight is that the light is homogeneous and not easy to produce glare; direct light in the evening has the opportunity to bring a different light and shadow effect to the interior space.
Disadvantages: the effect of diffuse light has a greater impact on the space to shape the sense of hierarchy and object form, three-dimensional sense.



对森加所在建筑进行采光分析,了解到一天中自然采光均以漫射光为主,并在傍晚时分有直射光线进入室内。
分析采光优缺点可知:
优点:漫射阳光的好处是光线均质,不易产生眩光;傍晚时分的直射光线有机会给内部空间带来不一样的光影效果。
缺点:漫射光的影响对空间塑造层次感和物体形态、立体感方面有较大影响。



FUNCTION  LIGHTING

_







The aim is to give full play to the environmental advantages of the building's location, allowing the natural environment of the landscape in which Senga is located and the artificially sculpted space to fully penetrate each other. Combining the brand concept of Senga with the element of "wood", the space is dominated by natural materials such as wood and complemented by light to create a free breathing, inclusive and naturally vibrant café.


旨在充分发挥建筑地理位置的环境优势,让森加所在的山水自然环境与人为雕琢的空间相互充分渗透。结合“森加”的品牌理念,提取“木“的元素,空间以木材等自然材料为主,光线为辅打造了一个自由会呼吸的、具有包容性的、充满自然生命力的咖啡馆。
The large floor-to-ceiling windows open up the space, bringing ample light and ventilation into the room, transferring the feeling of the outdoors, the changing weather and the natural atmosphere into the room in a soft way.

The use of large areas of dual colour temperature lighting film allows the combination of artificial light and natural light to evenly supplement the interior light, while the variable colour temperature nature can mimic natural light, blurring the boundaries between nature and space, giving the impression of being indoors but also feeling the breeze and soaking up the sun.


大面积的落地窗打开空间,给室内带来充足的采光和通风效果,将户外的感觉,天气的变化和自然的气氛,用一种柔和的方式传递进室内。

使用大片双色温灯膜,让人造光与自然光的结合,均匀补充室内光线的同时,可变色温的性质可以模拟自然光线,让自然与空间的界限模糊,让人感受到虽处于室内但也在感受清风、沐浴阳光。



The use of light incorporates the building as part of the natural mountain and forest, fusing it into an organic body, focusing on the combination of artificial and natural light to open up the limited space. The depth of field in nature and spirit stretches infinitely, turning it into a space suitable for letting go and breathing deeply even in the city.


用光将建筑纳入自然山林的一部分,融合成为一个有机体,注重人造光与自然光的结合,打通有限的空间。在自然和精神的景深无限绵长,将其变成一个身处都市也能适合放空、深呼吸的空间。






As the sun returns to the horizon, the sky takes on magnificent colours and the light inside becomes warm.


当太阳回归地平线,天空呈现出瑰丽的色彩,室内的光也变得温暖。






At night, the space turns warm, and the minimalist form of the ceiling light film gives the space a sense of unity, making it simple, yet warm and comfortable.

夜晚,空间整体变为暖色,天花极简的灯膜形式让空间呈现一体感,一眼望去空间简单明了,却又温馨舒适。


Wood is a living, natural material that has existed on this planet for over 300 million years. The first people to come out of their caves were using trees to take timber to build primitive wooden houses. Trees, rooted in the earth, exude a primal aura, full of spirit and life, and light is one of the most important factors for their growth. The use of natural materials seeks to blend the space with nature, using minimalist lighting design to express the inner abundance and to feel nature in a peaceful, understated and serene atmosphere.

木头是一种有生命的天然材料,存在于这个星球已经有3亿多年历史。人们最早走出洞穴,就是用树木取材来建造原始的木屋。树木,扎根于土,散发着原始气息,充满灵性和生机,而光是树木生长的重要因素之一。用自然材料力求将空间与自然融合,利用极简的灯光设计来表达内在的丰盈,在宁静、低调、的祥和氛围中感受自然。







Highlighting the focus in a homogeneous light environment, the point light source was then concealed into the light film structure and directed to illuminate the area of the coffee bar, attracting customers through the guiding effect of light.

在均匀的光环境中突出重点,于是将点光源隐藏到灯膜结构中,定向照射咖啡吧的区域,通过光的引导作用,吸引顾客。


The detailing of the lighting meets both functionality and visual comfort, as do the floor lights that punctuate the steps.

灯光的细节处理同时满足功能性和视觉舒适性,点缀在台阶的地脚灯,也是同样的道理。






The natural materials are more conducive to a calm and peaceful atmosphere, and are understated and introspective, permeating every corner covered by light. In their view, the simpler the life, the happier it is, and the simpler the life, the more direction it has. The ambience created by light is not about luxury or gimmicks, but about the urge to sit down when you walk through the door.


自然的材料更能衬托平静祥和的氛围,低调内敛的弥漫在被光覆盖的每一处角落。就像真正热爱生活的人,从不喜欢复杂繁琐,在他们看来,生活越简单就越幸福,人生越简单,就越有方向。光所营造的空间氛围感并不在于多豪奢或者噱头有多大,而是当你走进门便会有很想坐下来的冲动。


ART OF LIGHT PLUS

_




Spring, summer, autumn and winter, the seasons change and the cycle of life evolves to nurture a vision of the coming year. "The plant is transformed and nurtured as it grows and withers. To celebrate the vitality of nature and to convey Senses Plus' brand philosophy of loving life through nature, a light installation is hung at the entrance of Senses Plus, inspired by the 'falling leaves', where each falling leaf is the next spring!


春夏秋冬,四季更迭,生命循环演化中孕育着来年的憧憬。“落红不是无情物,化作春泥更护花”,植物从生长到凋零,也是生命的转化和孕育。为了赞颂自然的生命力和传达森加的崇尚自然热爱生活的品牌理念,在Senses Plus的入口,悬挂了一个灯光装置,它的灵感来源于“叶落”,每一片落叶都是下一个春天!






We have combined the natural imagery of falling leaves with the form of the light installation in a simple way, referring to the leaf forms of different trees. The use of natural imagery and the simplicity of the expressions allow the installation to blend perfectly with nature.


我们参考不同树木的叶片形态,以简素的表现方式将落叶这一自然意象与灯光装置形态相结合。自然意象的运用和简素质感的表现手法让装置与自然完美的融合在一起。



The mirrored ceiling top, which maps the installation, resembles a reflection formed by falling leaves on the lake, in a spiritual and natural way.
Visitors can see the installation from a distance and are attracted to it by the aroma of coffee and the "moving wall" when they approach the shop.



镜面的天花顶,将装置映射出来,就像是飘落在湖面上的落叶形成的倒影,灵动自然。
游客能从远处就看到这个装置,吸引着他们靠近,当靠近店内就会被咖啡的香味和“变幻的墙”所吸引。



The "Changing Wall" consists of several modes that change the image according to the time of day and the different needs of the shop. In the daytime, you can enjoy a cup of tea and chat with your friends in the shade of a tree, in the evening you can enjoy the sunset together, and in the evening you can enjoy a good meal and chat with your friends over a bonfire. Even if you are indoors, you can still sense nature and love life.


“变幻的墙”由多个模式,根据时间和店内不同需求更改画面。白天与三两好友在树荫下乘凉、品茗、聊天,傍晚一起欣赏日落,夜晚伴随着篝火品尝美食,畅聊。即使身处室内依旧感应自然,热爱生活。



 
Interesting lighting design brings a breath of fresh air and a chance for people to escape the fast-paced society and experience a new world, an artistic addition to light !



有趣的照明设计带来的是一种新鲜的空气,也是人们逃离快节奏的社会,体验新世界的机会,是光的艺术加成!
