Office AIO把北京香饵胡同的一栋带庭院的住宅转化成了软木和瓷砖装饰的小咖啡吧，还有传统风格的客房。

Office AIO has converted a courtyard residence in Beijing's Xiang'er Hutong into a tiny cork- and tile-lined coffee bar with a traditionally styled guest room.

这栋34平方米的微型商业建筑名为Big Small Coffee + B&B，它在北京的一个胡同区，由沿着狭窄的小巷和庭院排列的高密度的房屋组成。

Office AIO的创始人Timothy Kwan和Isabelle Sun把该空间分成两个部分：一个19平方米的咖啡吧和一间15平方米的客房，它们之间由庭院连接——一个和年长的邻居共用的庭院。

The tiny 34-square-metre business named Big Small Coffee + B&B is set within one of Beijing's hutong districts, which consist of high-density houses set along narrow alleys and around courtyards.
Office AIO founders Timothy Kwan and Isabelle Sun divided the space into two parts – a 19-square-metre coffee bar and a guest room measuring 15 square metres – linked by a courtyard shared with an elderly neighbour.

“在这个小空间里，咖啡吧的主人想为他们的客户带来严谨的自流咖啡，强调重点应该放在一杯好咖啡上。”Kwan 和Sun说。“因此 Big Small Coffee品牌——尺寸小但是目标强大。”

"The owners of the coffee business wanted to bring serious artesian coffee to their customers in a small space, emphasising focus on just a good cup of coffee," said Kwan and Sun. "Hence the brand Big Small Coffee – being small in size but big on intention."

咖啡店被镜面覆盖的吧台纵向分隔，吧台的上方是一块闪闪发光的花岗岩。

“在室内和胡同的景观之间，举止动作也能够消除隔阂，”建筑师说，他们添加了一对金属体块，能更多地提供室外的临时座位。

The coffee shop is split lengthwise by a mirror-clad bar topped by a slab of shimmering granite.
"The gesture also serves to dissolve the envelop in between the interior and the hutong scenes," said the architects, who added a pair of metal blocks to provide further impromptu seating outside.

而咖啡师的活动范围是覆盖白色小瓷砖的区域，它给室内一个无菌的外观，咖啡吧另一侧的座位区用触感很好的软木板装饰。

“小的白色瓷砖衡量了空间，是一个永恒的、灵活的、明亮的背景，”建筑师说。“另一方面软木板是温暖的，并让人忍不住去触摸。在与邻居的生活空间共用一片墙面的情况下，它也是一个吸声器，因此它是理想材料的选择。”

While the barista's realm is covered in small white tiles that give it a sterile appearance, on the other side of the bar the seating area is lined in tactile cork panels.
"The small white butcher tiles scale the space, and are a timeless, versatile, bright backdrop," said the architects. "The cork panels on the other hand are warm and inviting to the touch. It is also a sound absorber, making it an ideal choice of material in the context of a co-shared wall with the neighbouring living space."

小的工具都用磁铁固定在吧台后面的墙壁上，而较大的物体都展示在一个透明的丙烯酸架子单元上，它在花岗岩台面的上方。灯管用四条皮革带挂在架子的下方。

皮革的吧台椅沿着吧台的一侧排列，同时一排金属板从吧台椅后方的软木墙面上折叠下来，为只有一杯速溶咖啡的客人提供一个放杯子的地方。

Small tools are affixed with magnets to the wall behind the bar, while larger objects are displayed on a clear acrylic shelving unit suspended above the granite counter. A light tube hangs below the shelves on four leather straps.
Leather bar stools are lined up along the edge of the bar, while a row of metal flaps to their rear fold down from the cork-covered wall to offer a cup-rest for patrons only having a quick coffee.

软木门通往房子后方的洗涤区和卫生间，客房的入口在共享庭院的另一边。

在房主的儿子离开这里上大学之前，此处被房主和他的儿子占用，建筑师扩展了小空间，用一层草泥、木地板和细木工翻新了室内。

内部的双床下方有储存空间，可以存储额外的床上用品和行李，还有一个简单的悬臂软木台打开可以作为床头柜。

Corks doors open into the back-of-house washing area and toilet, and the entrance to the guest room set on the other side of the shared courtyard.
Previously occupied by the landlord and her son before he left for college, the architects extended the tiny space and refreshed the interior with a layer of straw clay, walnut flooring and joinery.
The built-in double bed has storage room beneath it for extra bedding and luggage, and a simple cantilevered cork desk doubles as a bedside table.

“室内的家具布置的很少，只满足B&B的基本需要，”他们说。

“因此让人想起传统的胡同住宅的室内。”

很多的胡同街区正在重新开发，创建一些当代住宅和商业建筑。

"The interior is furnished sparsely to fulfil the basic needs of a B&B," they said.
"The result is reminiscent of a traditional hutong dwelling interior."
Many of the traditional hutong neighbourhoods are being redeveloped to create contemporary housing and businesses.
