Design style
This butcher adopts an overall industrial style as the main tone, combined with natural wooden elements, creating a unique style collision. The ruggedness of industrial style is reflected in elements such as black metal frames and black and white geometric spliced floor tiles, conveying a professional and neat feeling. The addition of wooden elements, such as the extensive use of solid wood boards, infuses the space with a natural and warm atmosphere, alleviating the possible cold and hard feeling brought by the industrial style. When customers are choosing meat, they can sense the natural nature of the ingredients, enhancing their psychological sense of closeness. Meanwhile, the lighting design of the store is also quite thoughtful. The combination of track lights and chandeliers provides sufficient and even illumination. The lights mainly illuminate the meat display area, highlighting the color and freshness of the ingredients and creating an inviting consumption atmosphere. 
Layout planning
From the perspective of spatial layout, the store can be clearly divided into a meat display area, a processing operation area, and a storage and auxiliary area. The meat display area occupies the most prominent position at the entrance. Large glass refrigerated display cabinets are used to orderly display various pork products inside. Different categories such as “LOW FAT STIR FRY”, “BLACK ANGUS STEAK BITS”, “GLUTEN FREE SAUSAGES” have dedicated areas for customers to quickly identify and select. The height and length of the display cabinet not only ensure that customers can easily see the ingredients inside but also facilitate the staff to take and cut the meat. Long strip-shaped tiles with pork patterns are pasted on the outside of the display cabinet to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the store’s exterior.
The processing operation area is located on the inside of the store and is equipped with a long solid wood operation table, providing ample space for the fine processing of meat. Tool racks and seasoning shelves are set up on the surrounding walls. The knives and cutting boards commonly used by butchers can be easily accessed, and various seasonings and sauces are also neatly arranged, which enhances the convenience and efficiency of processing. This area is closely connected to the display area. Staff can quickly cut and process the displayed pork according to customers’ demands.
The storage and auxiliary area is centered around large refrigerated cabinets, which are used to store undisplayed pork raw materials and finished products to ensure the freshness of the ingredients. The wooden storage area beside can hold seasonings and other items, meeting the material storage needs for the daily operation of the store. Under the display stand is a counter with a sink, which can provide the water needed for daily cleaning.
Material application
The meat display cabinet is a custom-made product. Customized according to the size of the store, it can make full use of the display space at the front of the store. The cabinet frame is made of black metal. The sturdiness and corrosion resistance of the metal ensure the stability of long-term use. The glass part is made of high-transparency and anti-fog special glass. On the one hand, it clearly displays the ingredients inside; on the other hand, it is less likely to fog up when the temperature changes.
The floor and walls are covered with black and white anti-slip floor tiles. The geometrically spliced patterns enhance the visual effect of the industrial style. The anti-slip performance ensures the safety of the staff when handling meat and cleaning the floor. For the wall section, the background wall of the display area uses dark-colored tiles, which are easy to clean and can set off the color of the meat. The processing area and auxiliary area are tiled with white tiles, creating a clean and bright atmosphere and highlighting hygiene standards.
Solid wood boards are widely used in operation tables, storage cabinets and wall decoration. The inherent texture and feel of solid wood enhance the natural aesthetics of the space. Its sturdy and durable characteristics can also withstand the wear and tear during meat processing and the loss from daily use. If the operation table is used for cutting meat for a long time, it can still maintain a good working condition.
