蜜葉裡 Ambrosia奶茶店，深圳 / Biasol

如今，奶茶越来越受到人们的青睐，在饮料界引起了不小的轰动。传统的奶茶一般是用茶、水果、牛奶或者果汁配以一些小珍珠做成的。但事实上，并不是每杯奶茶都是用同样的原料做成的，在如今竞争激烈的市场环境中，一个品牌想要立足，就必须在价格和产品上有足够优势。

“蜜葉裡 Ambrosia”是建筑事务所Biasol在中国深圳新设计的一家奶茶店。它是一个全新的品牌，位于深圳的新兴区，客户希望邀请一家国际化的设计事务所来设计这个茶饮空间。因此，他们找到了Biasol，希望建筑师能够将“蜜葉裡 Ambrosia”打造成一个时尚、现代且令人印象深刻的空间。“蜜葉裡 Ambrosia”主打无糖奶茶，使用质量极佳的散装茶叶和最好的天然蜂蜜制作饮品，旨在让人们品尝到最正宗的茶味。

The popularity of bubble tea has been shaking up the beverage industry in recent years as the frothy, effervescent drink finds a market of faithful fans. Bubble tea is traditionally made with tea, fruit, milk or juice and little pearls of tapioca goodness. But not every bubble tea is the same with ingredients, price and experience differing as brands carve out their niche in a highly competitive market.

蜜葉裡 Ambrosia is the name we gave to a new tea brand and shop in an up-and-coming area of Shenzhen, China. The clients wanted an international studio to design their hospitality venue and brand and engaged Biasol to help make their mark as fashionable, modern and mindful. Wanting to share an authentic taste of tea without the use of sugar, 蜜葉裡 Ambrosia uses sensory loose-leaf teas and the finest natural honey.

“蜜葉裡”这个名字代表着“蜜叶”，意思是用蜂蜜代替糖，而ambrosia在古希腊神话中指代的是只有神能享用的食物或饮料，寓意长寿和不朽。“蜜葉裡 Ambrosia”的品牌理念是促进一种健康的、均衡的和充满幸福感的饮食和生活方式，因此，建筑师将这种理念转化为了建筑设计语言，通过材料和色调，打造出一个像奶茶一样甜美清爽的饮品空间。

在这个独特而具有影响力的空间中，手工艺技术和与众不同的美学元素随处可见，从而吸引了一大批紧随潮流的奶茶爱好者。极简主义风格的饮品店以传统的中式庭院和建筑入口大门为基础，创造出一种流动感，同时，柔和的粉红色色调也创造出一种平静的感官体验。

蜜葉裡, meaning “honey leaf,” refers to the use of honey instead of sugar, and ambrosia, in ancient Greek myths, is the food or drink of the gods, conferring longevity or immortality. As 蜜葉裡 Ambrosia fosters health, balance and happiness, we translated these values into the design of the venue with a material and colour palette as sweet and refreshing as bubble tea.

The unique and impactful space has handcrafted techniques and a distinctive aesthetic to appeal to the modern and mindful tea drinker. The minimalist form is based on the traditional Chinese courtyard houses and architectural gateways to achieve a sense of flow, while the soft pink palette creates a calming, sensory experience.

镶有不透明玻璃面板的木制拱门定义出奶茶店的入口和服务点餐台，同时，这些拱门也是对传统中式建筑入口的一种呼应和致敬。内部空间狭长，为顾客们提供了一种舒适亲密的氛围，让人不禁想起历史悠久的四合院。圆角的处理柔化了空间的狭长感，店内一端的墙面上贴有菜单，另一端则设有软垫长椅。服务点餐台位于空间的中心位置，所有的茶饮制作都在后方私密的操作间中完成。

Wooden arches with opaque glass panels frame the entry and service counter and are a contemporary nod to the traditional Chinese gateway, paifang. The long and narrow interior evokes the courtyard in historical siheyuan residences, where enclosed courtyards provide intimacy for family and friends. Rounded corners soften the feel of the long and narrow space, with a menu affixed to the wall at one end, and an upholstered banquette at the other end. The service counter is in the centre with all tea making taking place behind the scenes.

朴实的白色和木纹理创造出一种轻盈柔美的室内色调。由Fibonacci Stone提供的“Pavlova”水磨石被用作地板、柜台、桌子和墙面材料，融合了粉色色调，营造出一种平静的感官氛围。柜台上方的吊灯就像是奶茶里的珍珠， “Be my best cup of tea”字样的白色霓虹灯被贴在墙面上，表达了“蜜葉裡 Ambrosia”奶茶店想要传达的生活方式。“蜜葉裡 Ambrosia”所代表的，不仅仅是一种全新的奶茶调制方式，更是生活中必不可少的的佳品。

The light and feminine palette draws inspiration from pale earthy tones and timber textures. Fibonacci Stone’s “Pavlova” terrazzo on the floors, counter, tables and walls are an aggregate of sensory and calming tones with flesh, blush and salmon hues. Pendant lights above the counter are like bubbles rising to the surface, and a neon white light – “Be my best cup of tea” – reiterates the lifestyle that 蜜葉裡 Ambrosia represents. Not just another bubble tea, 蜜葉裡 Ambrosia is the best cup of bubble tea that life has to offer.
