Lo concèpte de design de mar de nívols al som de la montanha foguèt desvolopat en imaginant l'experiéncia luxuosa e la sensation vivificanta de préner lo tè amb de dofors en contemplant una mar de nívols. Lo site de la botiga es situat sus un puèg apelat Mont Sanada perque un sénher samurai Sanada i bastiguèt un castèl. Lo puèg es malaürosament tròp bas per èsser apelat montanha.

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.
