胖妹面庄于1998年始创于中国重庆，一直以提供当地正宗的麻辣重庆小面而闻名。小面是重庆饮食文化的精髓，其风味突出，却是一道十分普及和亲民的美食。2015年，胖妹来到北京开设分店，并很快成为唯一一家正宗中国西南风味的火爆面馆，常年挤满了本地食客和外地游客。客户找到OFFICE AIO的目的是重新打造品牌空间形象，在提供美味的面食之余，成为一个同时具备现代性而充满重庆特色的用餐环境。

Originally established in Chongqing City, China, in 1998, Chubby Girl’s Noodle Shop has always known for serving the locals authentic spicy noodles, which are a quintessential part of the city’s food culture, with outstanding flavours and honest services.  In 2015, our clients brought the brand to the heart of Beijing, and quickly became the one and only “go-to” noodle shop that offers uncompromising taste of southwest China. The Client came to OFFICE AIO with intent to overhaul the shop’s image from one that just happen to sell delicious noodles, to a totality with an interior atmosphere that could only be found appropriate enjoying Chongqing noodles in.

OFFICE AIO从摄影师Tim Franco、Nadav Kander和Mark Horn的作品中汲取灵感。他们的作品记录了重庆人们的日常生活，以都市和自然景观为背景，记录着这个错落有致，纵向层次丰富的城市。面馆150平方米的空间一分为三：其中，深处是横跨空间宽度的主厨房（55平方米），与之连接的是设有窗户面向街道的甜品和饮料制作区（15平方米），剩余的80平方米则作为用餐区。两个工作区和用餐区之间的内墙凿出了多个窗口，为终日繁忙的餐厅提供了极为高效和系统的工作流水线（每个座位翻台率仅为6分钟）。

OFFICE AIO drew inspirations from works of photographers Tim Franco, Nadav Kander, and Mark Horn. It documents people’s daily life with the multilayered verticality of the city’s urbanisation and natural landscape as the background. The 150sqm space was rationally dissected into three zones: a 55sqm section across the entire width at the back of the space as main kitchen, joined by a 15sqm section as dessert and beverage kitchen connecting to a street-facing window, and the remaining 80sqm as dining area.  Multiple “windows” were punctured through the internal walls between the two kitchens and the dining area, creating an extremely efficient and systematic serving flow for the busy restaurant (with a 6-minute-per-seat refresh rate).

胖妹面庄内部设计由众多台阶叠搭形成，采用黑灰白的三色水磨石，为整个空间内注入起伏错落的层次感。固定的桌子也以同样的水磨石现场浇制完成。为了创造在坡地城市景观中的路边面摊就餐这一特色的重庆体验，设计中在不同的高低的平台上布置桌子，特意制作成长短不一的造型，并与桌子匹配了小吃摊常用的折叠马扎。

Chubby Girl’s Noodle Shop is designed with multiple platforms in black/grey/white terrazzo to build up undulating heights across the space.  Built-in tables are also cast in-situ with the same terrazzo mix.  The varying table lengths, their seemingly scattered positioning, and folding stools commonly used by food stalls, give the patrons a sense of street dining along the sloped cityscape distinctive to Chongqing City.

OFFICE AIO具有预见性的重新布置了其天花板空间中现有的大量MEP管线，以供上面的楼层和一些现有的梁和柱对管道的利用。如此一来，让该方案设计发挥最大优势。为了突出原有的混凝土结构，设计中沿着结构的轮廓的设置了餐馆的霓虹灯饰，并在用餐区周围增添了落地雾膜镜子，进一步塑造切身的都市丛林和城市夜景洋溢的体验。

OFFICE AIO also strategically rearranged the extensive amount of MEP pipework in its ceiling space for the storeys above and some existing beams and columns to the scheme’s advantage.   With the addition of neon light tubes highlighting the outlines of the exaggerated “exposed concrete structure”, and full-height “foggy” mirrors surrounding the dining area, the candid sense of the urban jungle and its exuberant nightlight experience is fully rendered and delivered.
