As a grid unit in three-dimensional space, we set a 600mm x 600mm x 600mm voxel and designed the grid according to the movement of people and arrangement of objects. Twelve pieces of 30mm x 30mm pinewood timber are assembled to form a unit. Units are connected by inserting brass plates into the slits and fixing them with insert nuts and bolts. Factory production with the level of precision for furniture realized construction with minimum on-site error. As no screws or adhesives are used to fix the units, the system is flexible to design changes or conversions, aiming to create order and harmony to the entire space.

Objects are distributed and float, creating a sense of individual territories. The open shelving units have no front or back, so objects stand freely on them, creating a unique scene. For the wall behind the counter, we adopted a coloring technique for copperplates, which is traditional craftsmanship of Takaoka, and designed a unique dotted pattern like knots in a tree. The dots were plotted in a recursive arrangement of an obtuse isosceles triangle, and this distributive pattern, as if it existed in nature, was created in collaboration with artisans.
