- Floating Squircle -
In this design we try to answer 2 main objective iconic & effective.
To get the iconic status a design must be stand out and easily recognized. Instead of typical square shape we used squircle. A shape resulted from combining square and circle. To add dramatic effect the squircle placed off center so it give floating effect to the shape. Adding a splash of color further enhanced uniqueness of the design. Tale green chosen as main accent color. This tale green color will stand out from the rest of city evironment. Of course the color can be change if you choose so. While the squircle roof become the point of interest from far, we try to used the simplest glass facade to highlight the interior. Frameless glass used so the passing by customers can see directly to the interior. Rustic finish wood are the main finish to the table and storage. This material will give contrasting texture between exterior and interior.
As for the effectiveness of the design layout used simple single center circulation with operation and preparation on front and back side. This will ensure smallest footprint of the building without sacrificing easy to used space. By using this method the interior can be as small as 2.5m x 3.5m.
For the option using roof as seating area. We proposed increasing building length to create enough seating and easy to access stair.
