项目坐落于里海边的一座美丽小城中，是一家精致而舒适的咖啡馆。该项目旨在提升当地咖啡文化，刚开放不久，它就成为了当地社区聚会的主要场所。项目的灵感来自国际象棋 —— 游戏本身以及它自然产生的联想与神秘感。此外，设计还受到那些历史悠久的咖啡馆的独特风格和各种不同类型咖啡的绚丽色彩的影响。
Coffee Shop, which is located in the beautiful city on the shore of the Caspian Sea — is a cozy café which strives to enhance the coffee culture in the region. Just after the opening it became the main place for local community gatherings. The project was inspired by chess — the game itself and the illusion it naturally creates and its mystery. And also, historic cafés’ distinctive style and the splendid colors of various distinct types of coffee.

入口处，首先映入眼帘的是由当地艺术家绘制的吧台。起伏的线条与吧台上方的置物架精准地概括出美丽的咖啡色色调，彰显出设计的独特性。所有室内元素都经过精心的设计，以和谐的色调与棋盘格地板自然地匹配在一起。项目中选用的家具和装饰灯均由建筑师设计，并由当地工匠精心制作。
At the entrance, we instantly see a bar counter painted by a local artist. The undulating lines and shelves accurately represent the beauty and uniqueness of the coffee color pallette. Everything is intentionally designed in delicate characteristic hues that naturally fit the floor tiles, in which can be found a hint about chess board. Pieces of furniture and decorative lights were designed by architects’ sketches, made precisely for this project and executed by local craftsmen.

设计的主要目标旨在谨慎地保留咖啡馆所在历史建筑内部的独特氛围。因此，室内设计选用了柔和自然的色彩，以及与这种色调相辅相成的砖墙和棋牌地砖。此外，咖啡馆中还采用了一系列曲线元素，如：沙发、拱门、彩绘墙，以及吧台，这些元素在整个空间之中形成了流畅的联系。
The key goal was to carefully preserve the unique atmosphere inside the historic building. That is the principal reason for soft and natural color choice, along with the brick wall and properly fitted to it, chess floor tiles. There are echoing curvilinear sofas, arched doorways in the interior, and a painted wave on the wall and bar counter that links the whole space all together.

拱门后是一处专门为家庭或朋友聚会而设计的小隔间，这个空间以玻璃砖隔断与圆形沙发为特色，占据整面墙的拱形落地窗将街景引入室内。沙发中央的圆桌则由一块石头支撑。所有元素共同造就了这样一处高品质的陪伴空间，更重要的是，营造出了一种精致的整体环境氛围。
A smaller space that is separated by arched doorways, designed specifically for family or friends’ gatherings. The room has arched windows on the entire wall, glass block partitions and a round sofa. The round table stand is made of single-piece stone. All those elements create an excellent overall experience by bringing together good company, and most importantly, well-designed surroundings.

卫生间的设计可谓整个项目中的亮点。设计团队希望精心的设计能够对客人产生积极的影响。卫生间也隐藏于一道拱门之后，明亮的赭色瓷砖、圆形壁灯，以及定制的蓝色混凝土洗手池，为这里赋予了生动的空间形象。洗手池简单的几何形状完美地适应了空间中流动蜿蜒的线条，自然地创造出理想的平衡。
The bathroom area became the brightest accent in the project. The team’s desired result was to positively affect the guests. The space was thoughtfully designed with arch doorways. Radiant ochre-coloured tiles, a round wall sconce, and a custom-made rich blue concrete washbasin — all these essential elements are properly designating this room as the most vivid spot. The washbasin’s simple geometric forms perfectly adapt the flowing and winding lines of the space, naturally creating an ideal balance.

从外观上看，白色的线条对灰调的立面色彩进行了补充，同时也为独特的拱形窗户谱写出一曲和谐的伴奏。
In façade design the gray color complements the white and also provides a harmonious accompaniment to the characteristic arched windows.
