Umeda Chiyamachi Blue Bottle Coffee Café
Tokyo-based studio I IN recently completed umeda chayamachi’s design for the blue bottle Cafe in a Osaka, Japan. The distinctive blue logo of the brand clearly defines the space, giving customers the joy of discovering the familiar color of the coffee brand through various lighting features and materials. Historically, chiyamachi is known for the unique Japanese tea culture that brings people together. As such, this sense of loneliness is interpreted in a modern way throughout the café. It’s not just a concept, but a place that really stimulates the senses of the fives. The space became a completely new interior design for a café that offers a special experience while enjoying a cup of coffee,” states that I’m in.

Bright blue accents + warm materials that stimulate the senses
I a team I organized the first floor to welcome clients in a café surrounded by warm wood, with a large drip station filled with bright and welcoming light. The hairline brushed stainless steel counter stands boldly with a reflector that marks the boundary between baristas and customers. However, the most notable feature of the design is the special blue glass present throughout the space for expression blue coffee bottleFamous brand character. Moving into the staircase area, a glass chandelier hangs from the ceiling and spreads throughout the hallway. Coffee-colored glass globes, created by a Japanese glass artist, gently invite guests to explore the upper floor. “Customers can feel the light and flowing colors thanks to the 3D space experience of the stairs, The team explains. 
In the center of the second floor, a private area is flooded with blue light to stimulate the five senses of visitors. By spending time there and bathing in the images and sounds that “fall” from the ceiling, guests experience a unique atmosphere that can change their impression of time. “Pictures and music, created in collaboration with panorama-Allow the client to reset completely. The seat, made of a special material, works in such a way that only the person sitting can counteract that sensory experience.” I add in.
