C’s fort
Tokyo, Japan / 2010

“Growing shadow”

C’fort is deli style café bar which supper different menu to various customers on time by time.

‘Shadow’ is naturally changing by time in this shop, therefore I designed interior with theme ‘Shadow design’ throughout.
Firstly, tree branches, rebar, has spread out on ceiling which is to be worked for electric ducts.
Then, oval shaped sheets on ceiling lights create shadows which represent leaves.
As the result, customers can feel sense of walking into the deep forest by create deeper shadows by dimmer from day-time to night-time.
Customers naturally have experience of floating time through this intentionally created shadow.
