Located in Yamanaka Onsen, one of the Kaga hot spring resorts, Ohanami Kyubei is an inn that uses the slogan "Ryokan Cafe" to make Japanese culture more accessible. This time, we planned a restaurant renovation to accommodate a change in the style of meal service, and were responsible for everything from formulating the design concept to coordinating the art and interior plans.

As the hotel seeks to revamp its image amid the COVID-19 pandemic, it is undergoing an upgrade based on the theme of "how to enjoy a ryokan in line with the times." This restaurant renovation project has been able to deliver an update that preserves the concept of Ohanami Kyubei while allowing visitors to experience beauty and a sense of intimacy through an art experience.
