About Cups Kamakura Dearadh Taobh Istigh do Chaifé agus Óstán

Is dearadh taobh istigh é Cups Kamakura do bhialann chaifé a fhónann freisin mar óstán. Tá an foirgneamh os comhair an aigéin i Kamakura, an tSeapáin, agus faigheann an dearadh a inspioráid ó íomhánna uisce. Cruthaíodh graificí bunaithe ar uisce agus cuireadh i bhfeidhm iad ar spásanna an chaifé agus an óstáin trí obair chúramach ar chothromaíocht dathanna, frithchaitheamh solas na gréine agus roghnú ábhar. Tá an foirgneamh níos mó ná 50 bliain d'aois, mar sin baineadh painéil na síleála amach chun an bunstruchtúr adhmaid a nochtadh. Críochnaíodh an t-adhmad le laicir shoiléir lonrach agus cuireadh taca cruach nua leis.
