Baimajian Recreation Bar is located in The Scenic Spot of Dragon Pond, Baimajian in Suzhou. The scenic spot covers an area of 7 square kilometers and is the ecological "green lung" of Suzhou High-tech Zone. The lakes and mountains in the scenic spot are particularly beautiful and colorful. 

The project is adjacent to Longchi lake in the south and Fengtan lake in the north. We wanted to create a landscape building that would bring natural scenery into the building. The design is a renovation project, one of the major difficulties is the contradiction between the original structure and the new functional space requirements. The original site is a temporary building with pitched roof and wooden structure. The shape proportion and material of the original building do not conform to the simple and young tonality of the brand. Moreover, the original structure of the original building is complex and it is impossible to change its interior. 

After several rounds of deliberation, we finally created an iconic and unique online celebrity cafe while preserving the original structure and walls. In order to echo the pitched roof form of the original building, and continue the design elements of LIM Coffee's sloped white walls. The original wooden house is encased in a pure white square box shell. The facade is extended inwards by window openings in the form of pitched roofs, connecting the original building to the square box outside. 

The ground floor can be divided into three functional areas: storage, bathroom and kitchen. The toilet is located in the middle of the building, along with a spiral staircase, as an accessible area for both customers and support staff. The warehouse is separated from the kitchen. The ground floor is the area where customers enter the cafe. In the plane function layout, the front desk, entrance hall and box are set up. The front desk and entrance hall are set on the east side of the plan, while the two boxes are set on the quiet west side. The two boxes, one in the south and the other in the north, can enjoy different views of Dragon Pond and Fengtan through the outer window. 

How to provide comfortable space for participants to enjoy and communicate in the fengshui treasure land with all the lakes and mountains? How to balance the relationship between various elements? Are of great importance. LIM coffee is simple and youthful. LIM coffee's white design elements are used in the renovation, while the roof form of Windows cleverly preserves the pitched roof form of the original building. Far view hidden in the mountains, close view in the shadow of the trees. 

A touch of pure white exposed and the surrounding contrast, eye-catching. Trees stand in forest and white forest umbrella columns rise from the ground inside the building. LIM Coffee will bring youthful vitality and a wonderful space for communication to the Baima Jian Longchi Scenic area in Suzhou.
