About The Entry

The project is located on a corner in Taoyuan District in a building that is over forty years old. The design is inspired by the owner's passion for Taisho-era culture—a unique period that merged traditional Japanese aesthetics with Western luxury. Unlike conventional Japanese spaces characterized by tatami and paper screens, this project precisely captures the spirit of Westernization in the Taisho period. Centered on the atmosphere of the era, the design is developed through careful consideration of color, materials, and spatial composition. Within the space, one can observe both the delicate spirit of Yamato and the splendid artistic expressions of Western influence, creating a serene bar that feels both unfamiliar and yet distinctly familiar.
