He has recently started writing about the architectural projects that catch his imagination. Tetchan Yakitori Bar in Tokyo, Japan by KENGO KUMA AND ASSOCIATESApril 23rd, 2018 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: KENGO KUMA AND ASSOCIATES The project took place in Kichijoji (one of Tokyo’s suburban towns)’s Harmonica Yokochi, a wondrous bystreet that still retains the atmosphere of black-market stalls during the post-World War II period. We designed the interior for a small Yakitori bar that sits on the edge of the street.
It is mostly made of recycled materials. We applied recycled LAN cables, which we call Mojamoja – to describe its shaggy, wooly look – and what is called acrylic ball (left-over melted acrylic byproduct pieces) to everything from interior materials to furniture. As the result, some amazing interior emerged, where form becomes invisible and only materiality and various colors appear as if floating in the air. It also came to match well with the wall painting by Teruhiko Yumura. Share this:RelatedContact KENGO KUMA AND ASSOCIATES
