Design that creates a sense of unity with the park

The interior design was done by Makoto Tanijiri + Ai Yoshida / SUPPOSE DESIGN OFFIC, who have won numerous domestic and international design awards and architectural awards.

The interior of the café, which faces a lush green park, incorporates an abundance of wood to create a sense of unity with the park. The wood used is hardwood from Hida City, Gifu Prefecture. This project challenges the use of hardwoods, a sustainable material that nurtures rich forests, with the power of creativity.

Hida wood is used throughout the cafe, creating a very comfortable atmosphere.
