在街坊洗衣店飲酒打躉 比家更舒適
平日去洗衣店洗衫,待取衣服時,只能站著呆等。位於比利時根特城的WASBAR,留意到街坊需要,於是想一個小點子 - 於洗衣店的閒置空間,增設咖啡店和酒吧。街坊可隨心隨意在咖啡店和酒吧內休息或工作,這裡更特設私人空間,讓街坊可以自在摺衫和處理私人雜務。
店舖空間偌大,設計舒適,有如家一般的感覺,所以開業不久便吸引街坊在這裡打躉,間接成為街坊的聚腳地。同時成功將一間只有單一功能的店舖,轉變成多功能和連結社區的休憩空間。
假如您想成為洗衣店或咖啡店的老闆,這新點子或許用得上。
A Belgium Laundromat Is a Coffee Bar
Launched in 2012, the WASBAR in Belgium functions as a laundromat, coffee shop and a bar at the same time. Customers can enjoy breakfast, lunch, dinner or simply getting a pint of cold beer or fresh coffee. WASBAR turns a laundromat known as boredom and a waste of time into the space for creativity and socialization. The homey interior design gives people the feeling of relaxation as if they were at home. You do not have to get embarrassed at folding your clothes in public, WASBAR has prepared a private area for you. Customers are encouraged to creatively utilize the space for studying, reading the newspapers, having a gathering or even doing their hairdressing.
Some routine functions could be passive and boring, yet a simple and creative transformation likes WASBAR has effectively created a new connection with the nearby community and responded to the issue of the escalating urban density. Perhaps it’s time to rethink about our laundromats?
