About Be:side Kafe sy Hatsarana

Ho an'ny fanamby vaovao an'ny Funabashiya izay manana tantara lava hatramin'ny taona 1805 amin'ny maha toeram-pivarotana mochi arrowroot azy, nihevitra ny mpamorona fa zava-dehibe ny miverina amin'ny fototry ny tenany sy mitahiry ny tantarany lava, ka noho izany, nampihatra izy ireo ny toeram-pialan-tsasatra wisteria malaza ao amin'ny fivarotany lehibe tamin'ny famolavolana ny fidirana manontolo. Tsy io famolavolana mavitrika io ihany no misongadina eo amin'ny faritra fonenana tony any Aoyama sy misarika ny olona, fa miasa ihany koa ho toerana hipetrahana any ivelany ho an'ny mpanjifany.

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.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2020 and finished in July 2020 in Shibuya, Japan
