Renovation of a 40-year-old three-story wooden apartment building in Ebisu into a shop and gallery space. The existing ceiling was removed to reveal the space, and a new counter and lighting were installed. The movable counter in the center of the room has stainless steel mirror finishes on all sides, reflecting the scaffolding boards and the counter near the wall, creating a visual effect that gives depth to the room.
