“Infinite Combinations”

COEDO brewery is originated in this place. The brewery has moved to Kawagoe and the beer tanks used before were left behind here.
In spring 2015, they decided to change this place to “COEDO Craft Beer 1000 Labo” and started a new project to produce 1000 types of COEDO beer with 1000 liters each.
In regard to food menu, they provide genuine Chinese foods like dim sum, so that people can enjoy infinite combinations between 1000 types of COEDO beer and various Chinese foods. Here “Xiang Mai” was born.
I propose a new interior design to represent the infinite combinations by combining famous chairs and tables that each reflects the unique feature of its time in the long history of furniture.
