葡萄牙阿爾加維 奧斯塔餐廳
疫情時代後，新餐廳如雨後春筍般湧現，且幾乎無處不有，然而每個設計項目背後的故事卻鮮少被深入敘述，包括這些故事背後的人們、構成每個物體和角落的工藝，卻僅被歸結為冗長的技術描述或是感謝信中的簡單提及。
團隊認為本案獨特的美學，以及其背後令人難以置信的故事和旅程皆值得成為焦點。最初的想法和挑戰是期望將本項目打造成既獨一無二，亦與當地社區有所聯繫的項目，使其能成為各領域相互合作並和當地工匠共同建造，圍繞當地元素——大海、陽光和沙灘，在這片土地上建造一座持久且美好存在。
客戶為一對才華橫溢的夫婦，他們放棄了倫敦忙碌的生活，選擇深入探索緩慢、工藝和可持續發展的概念，其給了設計團隊明確的目標：通過創造一個非典型定的設計主題，打造獨特的用餐體驗，為不同的阿爾加維奠定基調與質感。
Although new restaurants seem to pop up everyday, and a bit everywhere, the stories behind each project are rarely told. The people behind those stories and the craft which layers and makes up every object and corner, are usually relegated to a few thank you notes at the end of lengthy technical descriptions.
This project, the incredible story, and the journey behind it deserve center stage. What started as an idea, and enormous challenge, to create something unique singular, and intricately bound to the local community, became a wonderful example of teamwork and careful investigation into what local craftsmen could add up to build something that lasts in a land usually associated with sea, sun and sand, and very little else (although those three are extraordinary).
Our clients - a talented couple who traded their busy life in London to explore notions of slowness, craft and sustainability - gave us a clear briefing: to develop a unique dining experience by creating a design theme that was anything but typical, but which immediately set the tone, and texture, of a different Algarve.
葡萄牙南部擁有許多令人讚嘆的酒店和餐廳設計，可滿足國際客戶的需求，但卻缺乏能體現幾個世紀以來複雜工藝和傳統手藝的空間，這些傳統如今已被賦予了新的變化。加梅羅工作室便是以將傳統與現代功能完美融合的創新設計方法而聞名。如今奧斯塔餐廳已成為該地區的創意聚集地，是對阿爾加維傳統、手工藝和自然美景的讚美，因其將傳統和鄉土風格與現代功能性和諧地融合在一起。
The South of Portugal is full of incredible hotels and restaurants that cater for an international clientele, but lacks spaces which tell of the centuries old traditions of intricate craft and texture which are now given a twist. Our Studio is known for its innovative approach which gracefully blends tradition with contemporary functionality.
AUSTA, completed this year and already a beehive of creativity in the region, is a celebration of the Algarve’s heritage, craftsmanship, and natural beauty. This harmonious fusion of traditional and vernacular influences with modern functionality
在對該地區進行多次實地考察、多次坐下來與當地手工藝人邊喝濃咖啡邊長時間交談後，團隊發現阿爾加維的這個特定地區擁有許多陶土瓦廠，生產和出口用當地粘土製成的精美瓦片。並被他們將粘土磚垂直堆放在窯內的方式所啟發，這樣在宏偉而古樸的窯內燒製粘土磚時，熱量可以均勻地分佈在瓷磚上。這裡的地板是由單獨切割的石頭組成的，不是垂直堆疊，而是水平堆疊，這次有柔和色調的摩拉諾斯色和深靛藍色的魯維納色。這種圖案以典型的風格散落在空間的其他元素中，並延伸到露台上，將室內和室外融為一體。這種矛盾正是專案和旅程的獨特之處。過程與實踐、嘗試的融合，完美平衡了思想與技巧之間的對話。
During many field trips to the region, many sit downs and long talks with local craftsmen over strong coffee, we found out that this particular area of the Algarve boasts a bunch of terracotta tiles factories which produce and export beautiful tiles made from local clay.
While visiting the factories we got inspired by the way they stacked the clay tiles inside the kiln, perpendicularly so that the heat can distribute equally across them as they are fired in grand yet rustic kilns.
The floor here is made up of individually cut stone ‘keys”, stacked horizontally instead of vertically, this time in both softly hues moleanos and deep indigo ruvina.
This is a pattern which fragments in typical Studio Gameiro style across other elements of the space, and out into the terrace to draw parallels between inside and outside. This contradiction of sorts is what made the project, and journey, so unique. A blend of process and practice, and tryouts, which perfectly balance a dialogue between thought and tact.
我們設計理念的核心是使用源自豐富天然材質的紋理和色彩。牆壁和天花板採用粘土色調的柔和石灰粉刷，向阿爾加維的製陶傳統致敬。除了美觀，石灰淨化空氣的特性也提升了餐廳的氛圍。
除了不斷追求一致性和驚喜之外，我們還為餐廳添置了定製家具，這些家具經過精心製作，反映了阿爾加維海岸的自然美景、地質奇觀、永恆的海洋以及當地的手工藝。這些訂製家具展示了我們將自然之美轉化為實用藝術的目標。
包括桌子和凳子在內的訂製家具向洶湧澎湃的大西洋和該地區的精湛工藝致敬。當地工匠的雙手穿梭於鹽和沙之間，精心製作了這些獨特的家具，為餐廳注入了原汁原味的氣息，並與居民的根源和記憶建立了深厚的聯繫。
At the core of our design philosophy is the use of textures and colours derived from rich, natural materials. Soft lime stucco in clay hues adorns the walls and ceilings, paying homage to the Algarve’s pottery traditions. Beyond aesthetics, lime’s air-purifying properties enhance the restaurant’s ambiance.
In addition and extension to our constant craving for consistency and surprise, we added the design of custom made furniture to fill the restaurant, meticulously crafted to reflect the natural beauty of the Algarve coast, its geological wonders, the timeless ocean, and local craftsmanship. These bespoke pieces showcase our aim to translate natural beauty into functional art.
The tailor made furniture, including tables and stools, pays tribute to the windswept and burly Atlantic, and to the region’s skilled craftsmanship. Local artisans, whose hands move between salt and sand, have crafted these unique pieces, infusing the restaurant with authenticity and a deep connection to their roots and memories.
