About Monya Interior Restoran Jepang

Monya adalah sebuah restoran Jepang dengan luas lantai sekitar 230 meter persegi. Fasad yang menghadap ke barat dibentuk oleh jendela kaca yang tinggi, sehingga kisi-kisi kayu yang sangat tipis dipasang di seluruh permukaannya untuk melembutkan sinar matahari yang kuat. Interiornya mencakup ruang-ruang privat, sebuah counter tempat koki memasak di hadapan para tamu, ruang terbuka untuk pesta, serta area duduk teras di samping taman privat. Salah satu ruang privat berbahan kaca dapat dibagi menjadi dua dengan sekat geser kedap suara. Kisi-kisi tersebut memberikan privasi tanpa dinding masif dan menciptakan permainan cahaya serta bayangan yang menenangkan.

Unique Properties: There are private rooms where small groups or groups can sit. Also, the counter seat where the chef cooks in front of you. There is also an open space available for parties.

Dimensions & Packaging: Floor area about 230 square meters
Tags: (Tachikawa、Monya、Japanese food,Cherry blossoms)
Production Technology: The height of the glass windows on the façade is very high　but I installed a very thin wooden grid over the entire surface of the windows.
It can be partially opened with a sliding door.
The glass-enclosed private room has a structure in which a soundproof slide shutter hangs down from the ceiling in the middle, and can be divided into two rooms.
Design Challenge: The client's request was to increase the number of private rooms but increasing the number of private rooms would result in more walls and a very closed and uncomfortable space.
This problem was solved by making heavy use of the traditional Japanese beauty of lattice design.
Research: We are always thinking about what kind of space will make our customers feel comfortable.
On anniversaries we would like you to enjoy your meal slowly feel the changing times and seasons and come to the store with your loved ones.
Inspiration: Since the shape of the site of this shop was a large glass surface in the part facing the west it was necessary to soften the strong sunlight during the day.
The wooden lattice, which is often used in Japanese architecture, is boldly expressed on this surface. The light and shadow of the lattice are beautiful during the day, and the image is calm and elegant at night.
Project Duration: The project started in Tachikawa Tokyo in February 2019 and opened in April 2020.
Operation Flow: Japanese cuisine values the four seasons of Japan and is a very important factor when a cook thinks about how to cook. It has long been inherited that seasonal ingredients are very effective for health so it is also a pleasure for our customers to enjoy the seasonal dishes of the four seasons with their eyes, and the next season. It will lead you to visit again to enjoy the food.
