Along the interior walls, large-scale Kumiko panels titled “SAZANAMI” are mounted directly onto the surface, allowing the natural relief of the woodwork to stand out with even greater dimensionality.
The intricate interplay of Yae-zakura, Ura-goma, and Matsunoha patterns evokes the gentle ripples that spread across a calm water surface— a quiet metaphor for the sea where crabs dwell. As light washes over the panels, the shadows shift subtly with each angle, creating a tranquil rhythm that softens both the passageways and the seating areas.
“SAZANAMI” is also incorporated into the private rooms and the back counter, bringing a sense of cohesion and a gentle continuity throughout the space. Its tender, undulating expression offers a quiet comfort, instilling a quiet composure in each guest.
