Ubuso bangaphambili bakhiwe njengegobolondo lekhorali, benziwe ngezinsimbi ezigobisiwe ngokukhethekile ezipendwe ngesandla ngemibala eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka kwekhorali kanye nemibala ye-emerald. Uma bedlula emnyango, izivakashi zisuka emgwaqweni omatasa zingene egumbini lokudlela elinokuthula. Izindonga ezinamathiselwe ukhonkolo ngesandla ziphinda zakhe ubunjalo bezakhiwo zekhorali. Ucwecwe lwengilazi enemibala olungamamilimitha angu-4700 ngo-1700 luqukethe imifanekiso yolwandle nomhlaba wase-Okinawa. Ingilazi ye-Ryukyu kanye nokukhanyisa okungaqondile kuphothula le ndawo.

Izici Ezihlukile: Located on Okinawa's busy Kokusai-dori, the facade's coral shell evokes a reef in emerald green seas, acting as a portal. In Okinawa, coral symbolizes protection and life. This design bridges tradition with modern art via hand-crafted plaster that recreates the tactile texture of reefs. Inside, city noise fades into a serene, underwater dimension. The sanctuary mirrors the mythical Dragon Palace, a space where local heritage, craftsmanship, and hospitality coexist in harmony.

Ubuchwepheshe Bokukhiqiza: The facade features custom-curved steel bars hand-painted in coral-blue and emerald tones to mimic reef rhythms. Interior walls use hand-plastered textures to recreate the tactile depth of coral formations. A 4700mm x 1700mm glass partition combines stained-glass artistry with traditional motifs. By integrating Ryukyu glass with indirect lighting, the design achieves a balance of materiality and ethereal light, blending local craftsmanship with contemporary spatial art.
Inselele Yokudweba: Strict fire codes required smoke exhaust windows on the facade, while local laws prohibited external signage. These constraints were overcome by using the cubic curvature of custom steel bars to mask functional elements, creating a facade that acts as its own landmark. By integrating a banyan tree motif into the play of shadows, the building achieves a distinctive identity that prioritizes artistic expression over conventional commercial branding, harmonizing necessity with creativity.
Ucwaningo: This project explores the link between Okinawa and the sea, using coral as a vital cultural symbol. Research focused on translating coral's protective qualities into a spatial experience. By using local craft and Ryukyu glass, the design reinterprets natural elements for a modern context. Despite strict fire and signage codes, the project transformed legal constraints into a landmark facade that honors marine heritage and Okinawa's poetic spirit.
Ugqozi: Inspired by Ryugu-jo, the mythical undersea palace. This project embodies "Authentic Ryukyu Modern" by blending Okinawan heritage with contemporary luxury. It seeks to recreate the serene beauty of coral reefs submerged in emerald green waters, redefining traditional motifs into a timeless spatial experience that honors the island's natural and cultural roots.
Ubude Bephrojekthi: Design planning for the project began in February 2024 in Naha, Okinawa, with construction completed in July 2024.
Ukuhamba Kokusebenza: The journey begins on vibrant Kokusai-dori Avenue. Passing through the coral shell facade, guests experience a dramatic sensory shift as urban noise is replaced by serene silence. This threshold acts as a portal to another dimension. Inside, the play of light through Ryukyu glass and tactile reef-like walls create an immersive underwater world. This transition from the chaotic city to a tranquil sanctuary allows diners to lose track of time, fully entering the mythical atmosphere of the Dragon Palace.
