A sake storehouse with 10 m ceilings, turned into a kappo restaurant with four ways to enjoy it.
The plan was to renovate a two-story building once used to store sake into a high-end kappo (Japanese fine dining) restaurant.
As a former warehouse, the building had ceilings reaching over 10 m. The brief was to make the most of this distinctive building's potential.
Counter, tables, private rooms, terrace. The plan needed each type of seating to offer its own kind of time.
The ground-floor counter seats and the terrace seats, with their adjoining courtyard garden, are laid out to take advantage of the ceiling height. The chefs' movements stand out as if on a stage.
The ground-floor table seats and second-floor private rooms have a calm, settled design. The pendant lights are finished in a special antique-copper paint.
We paid close attention to lighting so ingredients show their natural colors. At the entrance, indirect lighting gently illuminates the floor, building anticipation as guests step inside.
