Atsugi Technology Center No. 2 cafeteria
This was a project for the comprehensive renovation of the existing cafeteria. The cafeteria is laid out in a ”コ” shape overall, with the central area connecting the cafeteria’s mountain side, which has a view of Mount Oyama, and its river side, which faces the Sagami River. On the mountain side, there are many seats available for single-person use so that people in a hurry can quickly find a seat, and on the river side there are box sofas where people can relax and chat. In the central area, there is seating with monitors and screens that can be used for discussions, events, etc. In the decisions on the size and specifications of the furniture and fittings, the uses of each area were anticipated at a detail level while also giving consideration to durability, universal design principles, and other factors.
