There’s something delightfully daring about Studio Plenty’s design for Burly Bar, a local gin distiller’s first public venue located within The Warehouses building by JAR Office in Byron Bay. We’re impressed with how this young practice has balanced experimental materiality with atmospheric intent.
Studio Plenty 为 Burly Bar 设计的一些大胆之处令人愉快,Burly Bar 是当地杜松子酒酿酒厂的第一个公共场所,位于拜伦湾 JAR Office 的 The Warehouses 大楼内。这个年轻的实践如何平衡实验物质性和大气意图,给我们留下了深刻的印象。
Studio Plenty describes the scheme as “an eclectic cosmopolitan bar from Mars”. The interior thrives as two deeply connected yet distinct spaces—an embracing mezzanine lounge saturated in deep soft reds, and a refined, compositionally eclectic ground floor bar.
Studio Plenty 将该计划描述为 “来自火星的不拘一格的国际化酒吧”。 内部空间由两个紧密相连但又截然不同的空间组成——一个充满深柔和红色的环绕式夹层休息室,以及一个精致、构图不拘一格的底层酒吧 。
The material narrative is drawn directly from Burly Gin’s product design. The frosted glass of the gin bottle inspired an exploration of epoxy resin as a haptic and ocular companion, creating a sculptural harmony between the brand and interior. Run your hand along the bar counter and you’ll feel the embodiment of the brand—a clever touch that connects product to place.
材料叙事直接取材于 Burly Gin 的产品设计。杜松子酒瓶的磨砂玻璃激发了对环氧树脂作为触觉和视觉伴侣的探索,在品牌和内饰之间创造了雕塑般的和谐。用手沿着吧台滑行,您会感受到品牌的体现——一种将产品与场所连接起来的巧妙触感。
The preserved timber saw-tooth roof dramatically soars overhead, connecting the two-level space while allowing each to maintain its unique identity. This spatial division creates contrasting patron experiences, encouraging engagement with the mezzanine that might otherwise have been considered merely secondary space.
保存完好的木锯齿屋顶戏剧性地高耸于头顶,连接了两层空间,同时让每个空间都保持其独特的身份。这种空间划分创造了对比鲜明的顾客体验,鼓励与夹层互动,否则夹层可能仅仅被认为是次要空间。
Studio Plenty’s approach reflects their philosophy, where “Plenty” represents an opposing attitude to excess. As Director Will Rathgeber puts it, “Our appetite is for rational design, avoiding excessive tendencies, encouraging an obsession for functionalism.” This sensibility manifests through hard-wearing finishes, maximised natural light, and modesty in wall coverings.
Studio Plenty 的方法反映了他们的理念,其中“Plenty”代表了对过度的反对态度。正如导演 Will Rathgeber 所说,“ 我们渴望理性的设计,避免过度的倾向,鼓励对功能主义的痴迷。 这种敏感性体现在耐磨的饰面、最大化的自然光和朴素的墙面覆盖物上。
The client’s openness to push boundaries aligned perfectly with the studio’s experimental concepts, resulting in a bold, coherent design that opens doors for innovation in its industrial context. It’s this willingness to explore challenging materials and forms, underlined by thoughtful composition in tone and texture, that makes Burly Bar a standout example of contemporary Australian hospitality design.
客户突破界限的开放态度与工作室的实验概念完美契合,从而产生了大胆、连贯的设计,为工业环境中的创新打开了大门。正是这种探索具有挑战性的材料和形式的意愿,以及色调和质地的深思熟虑的构图,使 Burly Bar 成为当代澳大利亚酒店设计的杰出典范。
