Hocus Pocus Roasters
Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi • Cafe
Each building material has its own unique atmosphere. In terms of structure, there are various structures such as brick type, steel frame, and reinforced concrete, but these materials influence the greatest feeling of space inside and outside as they are in charge of the structure, which is the framework of architecture. This is because, depending on what material the structure is made of, the exterior and interior finishing materials that are perfect for the material are also determined. - I think it would be better not to just refer to it like this, but to point it out one by one and talk about it. Have you seen Kyobo Tower in Gangnam? The building is a building with an exterior finish by stacking bricks. You will have a heavy appreciation that is completely different from those towers in Gangnam, which are tall and glamorous and lightly stacked with glass walls. On the other hand, let's look at DDP. A thin but hard-looking iron plate is attached to the smooth curved surface. Sturdy and neat, the protruding parts hide behind the back, emphasizing the modern and sculptural sense of the building. There is also a cold feeling. Shall we go to the National Museum of Contemporary Art? It has a fresh and luxurious feeling with custom-made terracotta tiles [stone tile: stone], but it also has a sense of heaviness, weight, and solemnity that has been lost somewhere. - As such, building materials play a role in setting the atmosphere of the space. First, of course, the material is chosen to best keep the environment of the building, but thereafter, it is carefully selected for the purpose of the first line of this paragraph. - The space we are introducing today is a zinc panel on a steel frame. You may have seen it in warehouses outside the city, or it is used a lot as a roofing material when it is newly built in today's two 0 fill race. This material is as common as the impressions shown by the places where it is used. It is not a particularly cheap material, but it is also a material that is easily accessible because it is considered to be safe for its function. For this reason, we easily become filled with experiences in the space where these materials are used, creating preconceived notions about these materials. It is also true that the aforementioned spaces used some of those prejudices. - However, today's space slightly twists that preconceived notion like a pun. - There is no impression that it is cheap or that it is a warehouse. In the lightweight structure and linings, every effort has been made to transfer the material to other sentiments. There is a freshness shown by the combination of the exterior of the building, which is not well made with zinc panels, the unusual method of covering the entire area with black, and the combination of beautiful and expensive windows. Inside, the diversity of the space is well reflected, such as creating a duplex by making good use of the ceiling height and ensuring a hierarchy in the central space. - The landscaping also looks easy to make with all your attention. - This space, created by a person who is serious about coffee while discussing the temperature of coffee, may be a special feature of this space that one cup of coffee is amazing enough to trust and visit. - This is #Hockey's Focus in Pyeongtaek, a pun on materials. - PS. The above space is being operated in accordance with the government's Corona Virus Prevention Guideline 2.5. In addition, as the executive order prohibiting private gatherings of more than 5 people is extended to the whole country, Hocus Focus will be operated accordingly. All brunch is delicious.
