*나나 커피 로스터스: 빛을 향한 동굴의 여정 [ IDIN Architects ] Nana Coffee Roasters

 "건축은 빛과 그림자의 교향곡이다. 시간이 흐름에 따라 빛의 움직임이 공간에 생명을 불어넣는다." - 안도 타다오

나나 커피 로스터스: 빛을 향한 동굴의 여정  IDIN Architects-Nana Coffee Roasters

Nana Coffee Roasters, Central Westville Branch started from the question of how we can communicate the story of the Nana Coffee Roaster Brand in a distinctive way within a small area of 150 sq.m. The concept is derived from the conversation with the brand owner as he recalled his business journey to the time when he sees the "light at the end of the tunnel", this story, combined with the available small space, have inspired the architect to design a cave like structure containing "space within space".

동굴의 빛: 브랜드 철학을 담은 건축적 은유
150평방미터의 제한된 공간 속에서 나나 커피 로스터스의 브랜드 스토리를 어떻게 독특하게 담아낼 것인가? 이딘 아키텍츠(IDIN Architects)는 브랜드 오너와의 대화에서 얻은 "터널 끝의 빛"이라는 표현에서 영감을 받아 이 질문에 답했다. 그 결과 탄생한 것이 바로 '공간 속의 공간'을 품은 석굴 구조이다. 이 개념은 방문객들이 다양한 크기의 공간을 탐험하며 석굴에서 느낄 수 있는 공간적 흐름을 경험하도록 유도한다.

석굴의 지질학: 구조와 빛의 조화
다양한 볼륨으로 형성된 내부 공간 사이의 여백은 간격이 다른 와플 구조로 채워져 있다. 이 구조물은 동일한 짙은 회색 질감으로 마감되어 자연석 표면의 느낌을 자아낸다. 내부 조명은 구조체의 격자 안에 숨겨져 중앙 홀을 강조하며, 이 공간은 자연스럽게 건물 내 다른 영역으로 흘러간다. 더 프라이빗한 경험을 원하는 방문객을 위해 중이층이 더해져 공간 탐험의 또 다른 층위를 제공한다.

건축과 인테리어의 경계 허물기
이 프로젝트는 건축과 인테리어 디자인을 분리하지 않고 하나로 통합했다. 외관은 의도적으로 폐쇄적으로 설계되어 내부를 감추고 호기심을 자극하는 동시에 내부로 들어오는 자연광의 양을 섬세하게 조절한다. 건물의 외피는 곡면 처리된 석재 베니어로 감싸여 있으며, 표면의 굴곡은 태양빛과 상호작용하며 파사드에 생동감 있는 그림자 패턴을 그려낸다. 이 견고한 덩어리 같은 외관은 방문객들이 내부에 대한 호기심을 품게 만든다.

유기적 형태의 공간 구성
가구는 내부 공간의 다양한 '볼륨'에 맞춰 유기적으로 배치되었다. 방문객들은 개인 좌석부터 그룹 좌석까지 자신의 취향과 목적에 맞는 공간을 선택할 수 있다. 모든 가구는 내부 공간의 유기적 형태를 반영하는 부드러운 곡선을 특징으로 하며, 디자인의 일관성을 위해 회색, 검정, 구리, 목재 톤의 통일된 색채 구성으로 제어되었다.

벽화에 담긴 브랜드의 여정
중이층에는 회의나 커핑과 같은 그룹 활동을 위한 대형 좌석 공간이 마련되어 있다. 이 구역의 벽에는 동굴 벽화를 연상시키는 그림이 그려져 있어, 나나 커피 로스터스의 시작부터 현재에 이르는 여정을 시각적으로 들려준다. 은유적으로 이 중이층 공간은 문명의 시작을 상징하며, 카페의 나머지 어두운 '석굴' 구역과 선명한 대조를 이루도록 순백색으로 마감되었다.

커피의 여정을 담은 그래픽 요소
건축과 인테리어 디자인을 넘어, 주문 카운터에 새겨진 선과 같은 그래픽 요소들은 브랜드의 정체성과 깊이 연결되어 있다. 이 선들은 커피의 여정을 표현하며, 농장에서의 재배부터 로스팅, 그리고 최종 추출 단계까지의 과정을 담고 있다. 이렇게 커피의 스토리는 디자인 요소 곳곳에 녹아들어, 방문객들이 좋아하는 커피 한 잔을 즐기며 바리스타와 자연스러운 대화를 나눌 수 있는 소재가 된다.

공간적 경험으로서의 카페
나나 커피 로스터스는 단순한 음료 제공 공간을 넘어 건축적 내러티브를 경험할 수 있는 장소로 거듭났다. 석굴 속 어둠에서 빛을 향해 나아가는 여정이라는 상징적 메시지는 브랜드의 철학과 완벽하게 조화를 이루며, 방문객들에게 커피 한 잔의 의미를 넘어선 깊이 있는 공간 경험을 선사한다. 이는 건축이 단순한 물리적 구조물이 아닌, 브랜드의 정체성과 스토리를 전달하는 강력한 매개체가 될 수 있음을 보여주는 탁월한 사례이다.

These layers of volumes differ in size, urging the customers to explore the "sequence of volumes", imitating the spatial atmosphere of caves. The negative spaces created through the formation of volumes are filled with an interlocking waffle structure with various spacings, but are presented in the same textured dark gray tone to exude a natural stone surface in caves. The lighting is designed to be within the grids of the structure, highlighting the central foyer, which is the main area from the entrance. The foyer then flows into other areas of different volumes within the building. A mezzanine floor is added for a more private seating area while at the same time, also creating another zone for customers to explore.

This project combines architecture and interior design into one; the exterior is designed to be enclosed to hide the interior and creates an element of surprise while controlling the amount of natural light that enters the interior spaces. The building is wrapped with stone veneer that is curved to create ridges that interact with the sunlight, forming shadow patterns on the facade. The exterior resembles a solid mass to encourage the visitors to be curious about the interior. The furniture is arranged according to the various "volumes" of the interior space, visitors can choose from private single seats to group seating, where all selected furniture feature rounded forms to reflect the organic shapes of the internal volumes and are controlled within the same scheme of gray, black, copper and timber tone for design continuity.

A larger group seating is located on the mezzanine, where it can be utilized to hold meetings or group activities such as coffee cupping. The wall in this zone features murals that resemble cave paintings, telling the story of Nana Coffee Roasters from its beginning to the current time. Metaphorically, this mezzanine area also represents the start of civilization, and hence, it is painted in white to contrast with the darker "cave" zones in the rest of the cafe.

Apart from the architecture and interior design. The signage and the graphic elements, such as the lines featured on the ordering counter, have been derived from the brand's identity, in terms of its story, from its coffee-making process, from the start of the plantation to the roasting and brewing stage. The story of coffee is, therefore, intertwined into the content of design, sparking conversations between visitors and the baristas as they indulge in their favorite cups of coffee.
