About Taniroku Saka Siopa Fianán

Cuireann Taniroku Saka rogha milseog ar fáil le haghaidh ama tae. Forbraíodh an coincheap deartha—farraige scamall ag barr sléibhe—trí shamhlú an eispéiris sómasaigh agus an mhothú bhriosc a bhaineann le tae le milseáin a bheith agat agus tú ag féachaint amach ar fharraige scamall. Tá suíomh an tsiopa ar chnoc ar a dtugtar Mt. Sanada toisc gur thóg tiarna samurai Sanada caisleán ann. Is ró-íseal atá an cnoc, faraor, chun sliabh a thabhairt air. Is barr cnoic é áfach, agus dá bhrí sin d'fhorbair na dearthóirí an íomhá agus cheap siad an coincheap.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Taniroku Saka offers an assortment of desserts to accompany tea time. The design concept “a sea of clouds at the mountaintop” was developed by imagining the luxurious experience and brisk feel of having tea with sweets while overlooking a sea of clouds. The site of the shop is situated on a hill called Mt. Sanada because a samurai lord Sanada built a castle there. The hill is unfortunately too low to be called a mountain. Yet it is a hilltop, so the designers evolved the image and came up with the concept.
Inspiration: The most distinctive feature is the sales stands that occupy the entire sales floor. Aisles for staff are minimized, prompting the staff to serve customers outside. This sales style was inspired by the greengrocer and the fish shop nearby. The designers noticed they always stay in their storefronts to serve customers, adding a lively vibe to the neighborhood. They thought such assertive marketing instead of waiting for them to come in could be more appropriate for this neighborhood.
