THE TENDER HOUSE opened in Shirokane, which is a commercial complex including a restaurant, wedding halls and party rooms. Using effectively glass reinforced concrete for the rough elements on the front facade, the building, with the use of much natural material, is calm and open to let natural light and wind in. It is also intriguing that the facility has a chapel for wedding ceremony, a grill and barbecue restaurant, and an all-day dining restaurant.

THE PREMIUM MALT'S TAPBAR / RESTAURANT ASO, located in Kumamoto, is a snappy beer bar and restaurant, operated by SUNTORY, an major manufacturer in Japan. So the project is within the company’s factory site, to invite the local people.
The designer considered the local context Kumamoto prefecture and used the local soil and mortar to make a U-shaped counter which represents a hill in Kumamoto. This simple and cozy establishment has something similar to international style in the age of art and ecology.

This cafe is located along Katsuragawa River in Arashiyama, Kyoto. Big glazed openings work well in terms of both function and decoration. The transparency by big openings are for both users inside the cafe and passers-by out the cafe. A big flat eaves gives a feeling of floating and foundation of the building extends to make seating space. A counter gives the users and barista splendid views around the establishment. The counter made of polished white marble goes from the inside of the building and extends outside to make a terrace seating with a table.

Booth Net Cafe & Capsule is a kind of so-called “net cafe” in this country where users can enjoy reading a lot comic books and drinking free drinks.
This cafe is also a lounge of a capsule-hotel. Notable thing about the interior is the use of vivid color tiles on the walls that remind us of comic. Rough bookshelves made of laminated lumber make good contrast with the tiles.
