The rustic materiality of this Melbourne cafe designed by architecture studio Ritz & Ghougassian is meant to reflect the fuss-free dishes on the menu.
Prior is situated along the lively high street of Melbourne’s Thornbury suburb, taking over a building that once served as an industrial printing house.
這家由建築工作室Ritz＆Ghougassian設計的墨爾本咖啡館質樸，意在體現菜單上無憂的菜式。
普雷爾（Prior）位於墨爾本桑伯里（Thornbury）郊區熱鬧的高街上，接管了一棟曾經用作工業印刷廠的建築。
When Ritz & Ghougassian were brought on board to develop the interiors of the cafe, it stripped back any decorative elements left behind from the old fit-out, only preserving the brick walls and eight-metre-high truss ceiling.
“It was clear to us that we had to honour the original space by proposing an intervention that sat apart from the original framework of the building,” the studio’s co-founder, Jean-Paul Ghougassian, told Dezeen.
當Ritz＆Ghougassian被帶到船上來發展咖啡館的內部時，它剝去了舊裝修後留下的任何裝飾元素，只保留了磚牆和八米高的桁架天花板。
該工作室的聯合創始人讓·保羅·古格森（Jean-Paul Ghougassian）對Dezeen表示：“很明顯，我們必須提出一種干預措施，以保留原有的空間，以此來尊重原始空間。”
The space now features just a handful of elements made from unfussy materials that reflect the simple “paddock-to-plate” ethos that Prior applies to its menu.
Bricks run across the floor and form the base of the service bar that lies on one side of the room.
Apricot-hued concrete forms the upper half of the bar and the chunky ledge that runs around its outer side, providing a place for customers to rest beverages or snacks.
The hot drinks menu is presented on a mirrored panel behind the bar. It stands beside a single shelf that displays a curated selection of wine or bags of coffee which are available to buy.
現在，該空間僅包含少量由模糊材料製成的元素，這些元素反映了Prior應用於其菜單的簡單的“圍場到盤子”式的精神。
磚塊橫穿地板，形成了位於房間一側的服務欄的底部。
杏色的混凝土形成了吧台的上半部分，而矮小的壁架則圍繞著它的外側延伸，為顧客提供了休息飲料或小吃的地方。
酒吧後面的鏡面板上提供了熱飲菜單。 它站在一個架子旁邊，上面陳列著精選的葡萄酒或咖啡袋可供購買。
“Honest, elegant and refined flavours informed the built environment; by taking a reductive approach to the design both in materiality and form ultimately allowed the food to be the hero,” Ghougassian explained.
“Rather than simply creating a slick new eatery, there’s a warmth and richness to the space, celebrating the unevenness and rough textures of the walls and floors.”
Ghougassian解釋說：“誠實，高雅和精緻的風味為建築環境提供了信息；通過對材料的設計和形式採取簡化的設計，最終使食品成為了英雄。”
“不僅僅是簡單地創造一個光滑的新餐廳，它還為空間帶來了溫暖和豐富，慶祝了牆壁和地板的不均勻和粗糙紋理。”
Customers can alternatively dine at the black-steel counters that have been built into the cafe’s front windows or along the seating banquette that runs along the far side of the room, upholstered in chestnut-brown leather.
The banquette faces onto a row of dining tables which, along with the cafe’s bench-style seats and stools, have been crafted from Australian Blackbutt wood.
“Like much of our work, using materials that are locally sourced and manufactured is important to us – this brings about an authenticity and specificity to the design that isn’t easily replicated,” added Ghougassian.
顧客還可以在咖啡館前窗內置的黑鋼櫃檯上用餐，也可以在房間的另一側用餐的宴會上用餐，宴會用木板栗棕色皮革裝飾。
宴會面向一排餐桌，以及咖啡廳的長凳式座椅和凳子，均採用澳大利亞黑but木精製而成。
Ghougassian補充說：“與我們的大部分工作一樣，使用本地採購和製造的材料對我們很重要-這為不容易複製的設計帶來了真實性和特殊性。”
At the centre of the floor plan is a box filled with timber logs and a wood burner that the studio hopes will serve as a comforting focal point of the cafe, especially during the chilly winter months.
Surrounding walls and the ceiling were freshened up with a coat of white paint.
平面圖的中心是一個裝滿木原木和木材燃燒器的盒子，工作室希望它們可以用作咖啡館的舒適焦點，尤其是在寒冷的冬季。
周圍的牆壁和天花板都用白色塗料清掃了一下。
Ritz & Ghougassian was founded in 2016 by Jean-Paul Ghougassian and Gilad Ritz. Prior isn’t the only cafe that the studio has designed in its home city of Melbourne – back in 2018 it completed Bentwood, which boasts brick-red interiors.
In 2017, the studio also created Penta, a minimal cafe that features concrete, terrazzo and silver-metal surfaces.

Ritz＆Ghougassian由Jean-Paul Ghougassian和Gilad Ritz於2016年創立。 Prior不是工作室在其家鄉墨爾本唯一設計的咖啡館-早在2018年，它便完成了Bentwood的設計，該建築擁有磚紅色的內飾。
2017年，工作室還創建了Penta，這是一家最小的咖啡館，擁有混凝土，水磨石和金屬銀表面。
