项目基地The Site

继在俱乐部街（Club Street）和Tiong Bahru成功地开设了两家广受喜爱的Merci Marcel品牌餐饮服务店后，客户决定在Palais Renaissance购物中心内推出他们的咖啡酒吧旗舰店兼多品牌商店。项目基地原属于欧洲高奢表具制造商，总面积为2377平方英尺，拥有总长高达10米的高质量临街面，并享有购物街区的景观视野。此次建筑事务所HUI DESIGNS再次与客户合作，希望能够为他们设计出一个能够完美地展现出其独特的餐饮服务愿景的空间。

Having successfully launched the popular Merci Marcel F&B outlets on Club Street and in Tiong Bahru, the client (Antoine Rouland and Marie-Charlotte Ley Rouland of FROG’YS Pte. Ltd.) was ready to launch its flagship café, bar and multi-brand store in Palais Renaissance, a destination mall with unique brands. The client acquired the space previously occupied by a European luxury watchmaker for Merci Marcel Orchard Road, totalling 2377 sqf with a premium 10-metre frontage with a view of the shopping district. HUI DESIGNS is pleased to once again partner with the client to design and deliver its distinctive F&B vision.

立面和露台The Façade and Patio

从街道平面出发，设计团队和客户都认为可以在本项目中设置一个转角的露台用餐空间。该露台一侧通向Orchard路，同时还能让顾客们在用餐的同时欣赏到泰国皇家大使馆的侧面景观。

这就要求对空间的外墙进行重新设计。为此，设计团队在墙体上嵌入了带有金属框的大型拱形落地窗和门体，不仅致敬了20世纪50年代新加坡所流行的单层小屋，更营造出一种包豪斯般的建筑风格。这一设计手法立即使本项目从其周边环境中脱颖而出，并与购物区建立起紧密的联系。

With a street view from its space on level one, the client and I agreed that we needed to include a corner dining patio to the design – one that opens to Orchard Road on one side and offers a side view of the Royal Thai Embassy.

This required that we hack the building’s external walls. I designed sweeping arches of metal framed windows, walls and doors as a nod to a style popular with bungalows in 1950s Singapore and reminiscent of Bauhaus architecture. This immediately raised the visibility of Merci Marcel Orchard Road and connected the shopping district with the new flagship outlet.

咖啡厅和酒吧The Café and Bar

客户希望项目的入口处有一个门厅空间，从而使得顾客在未进入咖啡厅和酒吧之前便能体会到一种到达感。同时，这个门厅也可以作为主营法国产品的多品牌商店的侧门。

The client requested for a foyer at the entrance to create a sense of arrival before customers enter the café and bar. It also functions as a side entrance to the multi- brand store carrying predominantly French products.

建筑师在设计中融合了法国南部和摩洛哥的特色，打造出一个温馨而亲密的空间。在进入用餐空间之前，等位的顾客们可以坐在巴黎的复古天鹅绒沙发上，欣赏拱形的天花板和覆以罗勒绿色灰泥装饰的墙壁。

I designed a welcoming and intimate space with touches of South of France and Morocco. A vintage velvet sofa from Paris invites waiting customers to sit and take in the vaulted ceiling and walls finished in basil green plaster rendering before they are led to their seats.

在迈进主要空间的那一瞬间，顾客们便会立即被吧台吸引。悬挂着的光亮的黄铜架子上摆满了成排的优质烈酒和利口酒，绿植则塑造出空间的层次感，营造出一种迎接顾客到来的氛围。吧台的侧面上装饰着带有凹槽的实心白蜡木条。这种设计延续了Merci Marcel品牌在新加坡的第一家门店——Tiong Bahru店的空间细节。

As customers step into the main space, they will immediately see the island bar, their arrival heightened by the overhanging illuminated brass shelves filled with rows of premium spirits and liqueurs and indoor plants cascading from different levels. Fluted solid ash wood strips line the fascia of the bar counter, a detail taken from Merci Marcel Tiong Bahru, the group’s first bar in Singapore.

与Merci Marcel的其他门店一样，棕榈树、蕨类植物和各种适合室内种植的绿植等不仅限定了空间，更柔化了粗糙的灰泥抹面墙和裸露的砖墙所带来的冷硬感。此外，法国艺术家Tiphaine Sartini为本项目所创作的大型壁画也采用了棕榈的主题，从而与客户的稀奇古怪的收藏品和室内装饰品形成了一种相得益彰的效果。

Like all other Merci Marcel locations, palm trees, fronds and various types of indoor plants frame the space, softening the mix of rough plaster rendered walls and exposed painted brick walls. The palm theme is seen in the large wall mural painted by French artist Tiphaine Sartini, complementing the quirky art pieces and soft furnishings sourced by the client, Marie-Charlotte.

设计团队还在入口窗户的附近设置了一面特殊的墙体，这面墙体被客户亲切地称为“玫瑰墙（Rosé Wall）”。这面由货架构成的墙体被包裹在藤条之下，成为了Merci Marcel餐饮空间的主要特点。应客户的要求，每个架子上都设有低压的焰球灯，以便将柔和的光线投射到展示中的法式玫瑰花瓶上。

Customers will also quickly notice what the client joyfully calls the Rosé Wall near the entrance window. This feature wall of shelves is wrapped in strips made from rattan, a distinctive feature in Merci Marcel outlets. At the client’s request, each shelf has been lined with low-voltage flame bulbs that will cast a soft, gentle glow to bottles of French Rosé on display.

空间风格The Style

本项目是对“热带地区的法国”的当代诠释。它将欧洲中世纪的现代和复古家具与20世纪50年代的新加坡建筑设计风格相融合，再加以气候温暖地域内常用的藤条，打造出一个舒适的空间。

The style is a contemporary interpretation of “France In The Tropics” with an eclectic mix of mid-century modern and vintage furniture pieces from Europe juxtaposed with 1950s Singapore design and the use of rattan, which was common in warmer climes.

家具 | Furniture

本项目中设置着中世纪风格的现代和复古家具，其中包括从巴黎购买的丹麦古董餐椅和Saarinen郁金香桌椅等。为了增强热带的气息，设计团队在咖啡厅的周围放置了一系列藤制沙发，让人不禁穿越回20世纪50年代的新加坡。Cesca凳和卡座座椅都没有靠背，但均铺设着来自巴黎的垫子。此外，与其他Merci Marcel餐饮空间一样，本项目的酒吧中设置着Sika酒吧高脚凳。

The space hosts an eclectic mix of mid-century modern and vintage pieces, including vintage Danish dining chairs and Saarinen tulip tables and chairs, which were all purchased in Paris. To inject a tropical vibe, rattan-framed sofas reminiscent of 1950s Singapore have been placed around the cafe. Customers will sit on Cesca stools or banquettes that are backless but adorned with cushions from Paris. Like other Merci Marcel venues, the bar will feature Sika bar stools.
