The Design

About Bean to Bar Lounge Mae Lolfa

Elfen bwysig o'r dyluniad hwn oedd dwyn apêl y deunyddiau a ddefnyddiwyd allan. Y prif ddeunydd a ddefnyddiwyd oedd cedrwydd coch gorllewinol, a ddefnyddir hefyd yn eu siop gyntaf yn Japan. Fel ffordd o ddangos y deunydd, pentyrrodd Riki Watanabe batrwm mosaig trwy bentyrru darnau fesul un fel parquet, gan ddefnyddio hanfod deunyddiau lliwiau anwastad. Er gwaethaf defnyddio'r un deunyddiau, trwy eu torri allan, llwyddodd Riki Watanabe i amrywio'r ymadroddion yn dibynnu ar yr onglau gwylio.
