SLICE
An ivy-covered house exterior is kept intact to harmonize with peaceful village and natural surroundings. On the other hand, interior of the house was reconstructed dramatically under the theme “Slice”.
A primary element of the interior is blue bumpy surface composed of tables, chairs shelves and a counter that creates the effect of “Slice”.
Natural light coming through big window creates blue dim atmosphere with　reflection. It covers people to amplify special perceptional experience of blur blue space in the cafe.
People can enjoy meals and drinks with watching Japanese garden outside.
