KiKi 面（上海香港广场店）

檐前石叠山，林间云窥人

View from the courtyard

路过上海的香港广场时，一家名叫“KiKi面”的面馆有演员舒淇“亲自站台”，吸引了不少人的注意。

细细打听之下，原来这是舒淇的面馆，古早味十足的“台南手工日晒面”是这家面馆最大的特色。

行至KiKi面的门前，最先引入眼帘的莫过于轻斜的白色屋檐下，温馨简洁的KIKI茶吧与停放在入口的那一辆旧时台湾街头的煮面手推车。

走近细看，手推车上面琳琅面目摆放着各种出自KIKI的食品杂货，甚是丰富有趣，好像下一秒，带着客家话口音的台湾阿嬷就会从面车后面抬起头打招呼，问你要买点什么。

再抬步往里走，眼前正对着的确是远处的面吧，忙碌的煮面师傅专心地在布帘后烹饪，满满蒸气缭绕与忙碌的身影成为面馆不可或缺的一部分。

值得一提的是，厨房的布帘的设计是从多年前台湾的第一家店就开始使用，它代表着KiKi的初心，不管KiKi在世界的哪个角落驻足，最原始的想要做最好吃的面的初心都不会改变。

将目光收回到眼前的餐区。能容下近20人的大吧桌将面馆转化为共享空间，方形的共享桌子中心，是精心设计的微小景观，即使是一碗面的时间，设计师也希望将心灵带到安静的山水远方。

从吧桌抬头向上看，天花上的造型如同传统建筑的屋檐与天井，再目视远处林荫雾袅的墙面，突然间明白。

这一处空间，竟然是希望人们坐在天井之下的庭院，静静眺望远处的风景。所以本来应该是热闹拥挤的面馆设计成这样的宽敞氛围，也不过是想要在此处给来往的人一个小憩的场所，看看眼前的山水，“远眺”庭院之外的山林，给心灵一个小节的放空。

从吧桌往前走，是KiKi食品杂货的售卖区域，使得食客不仅仅可以吃到一碗热气腾腾的配有不同口味台南手工日晒面，更可以满足更多想要自己料理的食客。

若是绕过吧桌，再往里走又更是一处惊喜的风景。葱郁山林的壁画前是，一排特别的卡座。鳞次栉比的“山石”替代了传统的沙发，成为卡座的靠背，与背后的山林相互呼应，有成一景。

同时在功能上，这一出的空间是个弧面，设计师将视觉上依旧保持一个弧面的效果，如同全景的落地窗，将景色尽收眼底，但在使用上，卡座层层叠级，又是一个个矩形的单元。

KiKi像一个面馆里的“文艺青年”，不追求热闹与喧嚣，更想用温馨静谧的空间为每一位来到这里的人辟得一处心灵放空的场所，哪怕是一个短暂的走神，于今日之中行色匆匆的都市人，也是一种不可多得温柔。

KiKi面馆是来自中国台湾的品牌，老板之一是中国台湾演员舒淇，概念是来自台湾传统建筑，屋檐下的庭园，因此您可以看到天花板上有几个白色围合的屋檐，希望人们能感受到在屋檐下的庭院里吃碗好吃的面的感受。

我们的想法是用现代方法来解释传统中国台湾建筑的空间逻辑。 当您在庭院里看着上方，屋檐成为天空的画框，更最重要的体验是在屋内望出欣赏庭院中的植物景观。





When passing through the KIKI noodle house the Hong Kong Plaza in Shanghai, you notice the brand“KIKI Noodle” with the actor Shu Qi is “big fans”, which attracts the attention of many people.

Once you find out more, this is the noodle house of Shu Qi.. The ancient Taiwan Tainan handmade sun-dried noodle is the biggest feature of this noodle bar.

In front of the KIKI door, the first thing to welcome you is the lightly sloping white eaves, the warm and simple KIKI tea bar and the old Taiwanese street cooking cart parked at the entrance.

When you walk closer, you will see a variety of products from KIKI in the trolley. It gives you an impression that in the next second, a Taiwanese aunt with a Hakka accent will look up from behind the cart and greet you, and ask you what you want to buy.

Once you walk in, you face the bright kitchen in the distance, The busy noodle chef concentrated on cooking behind the curtains. The steamy and busy figure is an indispensable part of the noodle restaurant.

It is worth mentioning that the design of the kitchen curtain is used from the first store in Taiwan. It represents the initial heart of KIKI. No matter where KIKI goes in the world, the most original one will always be the best, The original want of making the best noodles will not change.

Take your eyes back to the dining area in front of you. The large bar table can accommodate nearly 20 people transforms the noodle bar into a shared space. The square shared table center is a carefully designed tiny landscape. Even if it is just for a bowl of noodles, the designer hopes to bring the soul to the quiet landscape.

Looking up from the bar table, the shape of the ceiling is like the eaves and patios of traditional buildings, and then You look at the misty walls in the distance and suddenly understand.

This space is a place where people sit in the courtyard below the patio and quietly stare at the distant scenery. Therefore it should have been a lively and crowded noodle bar designed to be such a spacious atmosphere, but it is just a place where people who want to come and go here to see the mountains and rivers in front of them, "the mountains beyond the courtyard", to the soul,  a short section of the emptiness.

Going forward from the bar table is the sales area of KIKI products, so that customers can not only eat a bowl of steaming Tainan handmade sun-dried noodles with different tastes, but also satisfy more of those who want to cook their own dishes.

If you bypass the bar table, go inside and it is a pleasant scenery. In front of the murals of the lush forest, there is a row of special decks. The row of "mountain stones” replaces the traditional sofa, and becomes the backrest of the deck. It echoes the forest behind it, creating an atmosphere.

At the same time, in terms of function, this space is a curved surface, the designer will still maintain a curved surface effect visually, like the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, which will have a panoramic view, but in use, the deck layer is cascaded, a rectangular unit.

KIKI is like a "literary youth" in a noodle restaurant. It does not pursue the excitement and embarrassment. It wants to use a warm and quiet space to create a place for everyone who comes here to relax, even if it is only for a short-lived distraction. The urbanites who are in always in a hurry today are the kind that will appreciate such softness in the environment of the bar.

Additional instructions

Kiki Noodle House is a brand from Taiwan, one of the owners is the Taiwanese actress Shu-Qi ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shu_Qi ). The concept comes from traditional Taiwanese residence, the garden under the “sunroof,” hence you can see the white squares on top. We wish people can experience what it feels like to enjoy a delicious bowl of noodles in the courtyard underneath the eaves.

The idea is to use contemporary methods to interpret the spatial logic of traditional Taiwanese architecture. The two most important experiences come from when you look above the courtyard, at the sky frame and the roof eaves, and the other is the plant landscape seen from the courtyard

The main materials used are oak wood, and concrete tiles.
