interesting and quite inspiring entrance, creating awe atmosphere, tilted roof which is close to the reading area

we analysed every detail of this work in our ” Basics of Designing ” class and we drew several diagrams for this . Our teacher – who is an architect here in Iran – admired it a lot . i saw it again today and just wanted to mention this sweet memory .

The inner spaces look very cozy to me.

Singular; as often as architect’s embrace/attempt “contextualism,” it’s fair to say we don’t expect them to hold so tightly to that concept when the context is a parking lot. Suppose Design is certainly devoted to it, even to the point of wrapping the restaurant itself with the parking lot’s texture and coloration. Provocative, if nothing else.

Since you can’t access the project on the ends, I don’t see how it really takes advantage of the 1 meter elevation change. The experience of the split level is a sunken pit…
I also have to agree on that entrance — the canopy alone (try as it might) doesn’t overcome the fact that you’re entering through a portal in a very large wall. It might have been nicer to enter on the other side and ‘go up’ to get your coffee since you’d really engage with that dramatic slope of the ceiling…

[...] When Café la Miell’s popularity outgrew its floor plan, owners called upon Suppose Design Office to create a new space that added customer seating without sacrificing the intimacy lost with stacking diners atop one another in a multi-story space. Building on a sight across the street in Niihama, Japan, architects created a split-level seating arrangement that’s split between street-level and below-grade spaces. Customer parking is blocked off by an opaque concrete wall, which after turning the corner, is broken by glass segments that pour light into the dining spaces inside. [via archdaily] [...]

There is no acknowledgment in the geometry of the act of entering. One enters into a slice, which has the formal equivalence of entering on the end of a wall, rather than its face. The architects could have taken a piece of the slope and rotated it up until it was horizontal, so as to welcome visitors. Entry as built is a guillotine.

i like it, the uni-body facade, the space created inside (half triangle) and the subtracted facade as an inner court, but somehow i wonder, why they used stone and massive concrete instead of grass on the roof?? for me, it is better to use grass or combine them..

what do you mean? …”ones own motion could open such an acute angle.”

By: Squidly

Very awkward and clumsy, especially the entry, where one has to enter as if the ones own motion could open such an acute angle. These people need formal training!
