About Bay Arce Interior de restaurante

Bay Arce es un restaurante de mariscos ubicado en el edificio de la terminal de cruceros del puerto de Kanazawa. La zona de comedor se abre al mar a través de un muro íntegramente acristalado, y las vistas se revelan de forma gradual a medida que los visitantes avanzan desde la entrada. El volumen de los asientos configura una gran forma redondeada que evoca a un barco, construida con finas piezas de madera de hiba de Noto, procedente de la prefectura de Ishikawa. Un suelo escalonado permite contemplar el mar desde cada asiento, y una rampa suave facilita el acceso a personas usuarias de silla de ruedas. El techo de madera se curva a mano hasta adoptar una forma ondulada y se ilumina por la noche.

Unique Properties
The structure of the audience seats cannot be seen from the entrance, and when you enter the store, you can gradually see the audience seats and the sea.
This is similar to the gradual increase in expectations.
The entire audience seats have a large rounded shape and look like a large ship.
If you look closely, the fine wood expresses the craftsmanship of the combination of natural wood colors. In addition, the wooden panel that represents the waves is beautifully lit up on the ceiling.
Dimensions & Packaging
Floor area: about 230 square meters

(Kanazawa Port) (Ishikawa Prefecture)
Production Technology
The wood called Noto Hiba from Ishikawa Prefecture uses materials with excellent characteristics such as deodorant and insect repellent as the foundation.
In addition, the wave shape of the ceiling, which is the image of the waves of the sea, is also made of wood by a very delicate technique.
The whole waist is also beautiful with a combination of fine wooden chips
It creates a rounded shape and looks like a ship.
Design Challenge
Metals such as steel bend easily to express the waves on the ceiling, but because the load on the ceiling is too high and I wanted to use wood, I draw a wavy drawing for each sheet and bend with wood. In Earl
I configured it. It is fixed to the ceiling with a fine pin.
Research
What kind of space composition is comfortable for me? Also, the cozy space will succeed as a commercial space. I always think about that and work.
For this Bay arce, you can enjoy a fresh seafood meal in a space overlooking the sea, so that you can respond to various occasions such as friends, family, lovers, anniversaries and weddings.
Inspiration
Bay arce is a seafood restaurant located in the Kanazawa Port Cruise Terminal Building.
Not only customers anchored at Kanazawa Port but also Japanese tourists can enjoy it.
The sea side is covered with glass on one side, so you can get a beautiful view of the sea.
For visitors
It is a step floor format from the sea side so that it can be seen from any audience seat. Up to the height of one copy so that it can be used by people in wheelchairs
You can climb on the slope floor.
The sofa seats on the sea side, the round table seats, and the step floor seats are designed so that you can enjoy it even if you come with various people.
Project Duration
The project started in February 2019 in Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture.
It opened in April 2020.
