About Be:side Caife agus Áilleacht

Mar dhúshlán nua do Funabashiya, atá ann le stair fhada ó 1805 mar shiopa mochi arrowroot, shíl na dearthóirí go raibh sé tábhachtach filleadh ar a bhfréamhacha féin agus meas a bheith acu ar a stair fhada, agus dá bhrí sin, ghlac siad leis an gcraobhóg wisteria shiombalach óna bpríomhstiúir i ndearadh iomlán an iontrála. Ní hamháin go dtagann an dearadh dinimiciúil seo den iontrál chun cinn sa cheantar cónaithe ciúin in Aoyama agus go dtarraingíonn sé aird daoine, ach feidhmíonn sé freisin mar shuíocháin lasmuigh dá gcustaiméirí.

Unique Properties: Funabashiya is an arrowroot mochi store with a long history since 1805, and this shop is their new conceptual shop focusing on health and beauty. The wisteria arbor at Funabashiya's flagship store became iconic to their customer.
For new challenge of our client Funabashiya which is with a long history since 1805 as arrowroot mochi store, the designers thought it is important to return to their own roots and cherish their long history. Therefore, they adopted the iconic wisteria arbor of Funabashiya's flagship store to the design of the whole entrance. Not only the dynamic design of the entrance stands out in the quiet residence area in Aoyama and caught people’s attentions, but it also functions as outside seating for their customers.

Production Technology: To emphasize the linear design, the dark grey tiles runs from the terrace to the end of the store, and it makes the store look deeper and the terrace roof inspired by the wisteria arbor more dynamic. The designers kept the interior minimum and simple to make their products stands out and carefully plan the lighting to make the space bright enough but not too plain and boring by creating contrast of light.
Inspiration: Inspiration came from the wisteria arbor at “Funabashiya” flagship store in Kameido. The wisteria arbor became iconic to their customer over the years of their history. For their new challenge, the designers thought it is important to return to their own roots and cherish their long history.
