About Ricca 酒吧室内设计

RICCA 是位于东京神乐坂的一间酒吧室内设计项目，这一街区至今保留着传统的日本风情。设计以"花见"为主题——这是日本人在初春时节仅持续数周的赏樱习俗。两处空间的天花板均以花朵造型的装置覆盖，这些构件由贴有全息膜的树脂制成，经激光切割后手工弯折成形。置于其内外的灯光映照出不断变幻的色彩，令这些造型宛如翩然飞舞的花瓣。休息区加入了半透明的红色膜材，而私密的卡拉OK包间则呈现出光线自然的映射效果。

Unique Properties: "Ricca" is a bar, located at Kagurazaka.　
Even now, there are Japanese traditional atmosphere and alley in this town.
I created this design to express Japanese aesthetic sense.
In Japan, there is cultural event is known as “Hanami”, which means “cherry blossom viewing”. This unique event is happened only in couples of week of early spring.
Inspired by this moment, I designed this bar with beauty, glamorous, strength and fragility of Hanami.

Tags: Bar, Lounge, cherryblossom, artwork, Reflection, ceiling, hologram
Production Technology: The ceilings of both spaces are covered with deformed flower objects. The objects are made of resin with hologram sheets and cut with a laser. Guests can see various colors and reflected lights because of the feature of the hologram sheets and they appear to be fluttering flowers. I added half-transparent red color film on the resin objects to create a more bewitching atmosphere in the lounge area. Meanwhile, in the private karaoke room I had the hologram to reflect the lights naturally in order to produce more active feelings. In the center of the room I hung the hologram objects from the ceiling and put the light from both inside and outside. The light from the outside gets reflected randomly in the room and from inside projects flower-like expression onto the ceiling and the wall.
Design Challenge: All the reflection of this object at this place are different, cause of the angle of ceiling, light and air circulation.
So, I had to take many samples and experiment to set properly.
And also all the hologram materials are bend an pressed by hands, so it provides the lighting reflection randomly.
Research: When I was walking down street, the streets have many trees of cherry with blossom opens and fluttered, I was surprised this unique moment.
Then I realized that if I can express cherry flowers’ beauty, glamorous, strength and fragility, which will be great design and concept for any of spaces like bar and lounge.
Inspiration: To express Hanami's beauty, glamorous, strength and fragility, I use a resin with hologram sheets with laser cut as fluttering flowers. Then I hung the hologram objects from the ceiling and put the light from both inside and outside. And also, I create two areas. One is lounge area that has atmosphere with glamorous and beauty, the other is private karaoke room area that has active side of Hanami, like energy, strength and more.
Project Duration: B1F KAGURAZAKA TERRACE
5-1 KAGURAZAKA, SHINJUKU-KU, TOKYO ZIP162 0825 JAPAN
Operation Flow: This object what I designed is installed in a bar/ lounge. It stays permanently, does not required any of maintenance and repair often.
