夏天，在魔都种一片迷幻森林：

Cast a psychedelic forest in Shanghai at Summer：

小自然丨Micro nature

“在天井种一片小森林，沿着迷幻天空往里走，于蜿蜒柔软的小河边坐下，轻轻地喝一杯茶。”这是我们设计mistea茶饮店时最初的构想。

“Grow a small forest in the patio， walk along the psychedelic sky， sit down along meandering river and sip a cup of tea gently.”This is the first idea we came up with when designing the shop.

“小自然”的构想拆分开来，可以分为三个部分：“小森林”、“天空”、“小河”，分别对应的是“小森林”、“迷幻”和“流动”。

The concept of “micro nature” can be divided into three parts： “forest”， “sky”， “river”， which correspond to “small forest”， “the psychedelic” and “flowing”.

在第一次和业主去基地现场勘探的时候，就遇见了门前约占店铺面宽1/4的梧桐树，并且店和树之间的人行道宽度非常狭窄，以至于能同时通行两人已是捉襟见肘了。在这个又惊又喜的大树面前，我们就想，不如把这棵大树变成自家的树吧，然后把天井打开，种一片小森林去和门前的大树做朋友。接着，做流动的空间，把行人引入到店内，再做一片奇幻的天空，回应店的名字“mistea”。因为现场的限制条件，和店本身的特质，于是设计概念一开始便能够呈现出大体的骨架了。以下，便是以“小自然”的三部曲来分别叙述这个店设计的故事了。

When I first visited the site with the owner， we recognized this wide tree that about a quarter of the width of the store front， and it sits between the sidewalk and store.The width is so narrow that it is stretched to pass two people simultaneously. To deal with this tree of surprise and joy， we take it to be a part of our design. We extend the patio and plant a small forest to be friends with the big fellow at front. we introduced pedestrians by designing the free flowing space， and followed with a “psychedelic sky” ceiling that was inspired by the name of the store “mistea”. The concept was exposed to us because of the characteristic of this store and the site restrictions.The story of this store design is followed separately in the trilogy of “Micro Nature”.
