“Lagom”, a book by the Swedish writer Laura A. Akström about life in Sweden has brought this bakery on Tangping Road, which has also constructed the main idea of the initial stage of its design.

In the afternoon, the sunlight passing through the trees on Tangping Road is free and warm, and we hope to extend the beauty infinitely with the aroma of bread.

So the idea of the design is all about sunlight, warmth, and freedom. To better retain the sunlight, we leave a blank space above the door where the sunlight can grow and nature can change the look of the door with time. Combined with the shape, we build a stone platform for outdoor rest, so that our customers can enjoy the delicious bread outdoors in the sunny season.

To better bring the outdoor light and shadow into the room, we install a paper screen that can be raised and lowered in the indoor door, so that the light and shadow of the day can be vividly displayed on the paper, making the indoor atmosphere more natural.

For the interior design, we break the traditional sales mode of the bakery and present the bread in the form of a central counter to better convey the brand’s idea of tolerance and freedom. While improving interactivity, it also makes the overall movement of the space more unified and freer.

To create a warm and natural space atmosphere and better integrate the space with bread, we use natural travertine and birch as the main materials to construct the entire space. The bar counter and the bread counter are built with cast-in-place concrete, which not only creates a contrast between the two main physical structures in the space but also adds a simple sense of strength to the space.

In handling the details of the space, we keep the basic shapes of different display areas in the space unified, and at the same time give them different details to make the visual effect more delicate and richer.
