Located near an art museum, Boulangerie Yorimichi is a specialized confectionery shop that employs Furoshiki for its packaging and occupies a building that has undergone multiple renovations. The design team has stripped away excessive exterior decor to restore the courtyard's innate tranquility, as if inviting visitors to explore the interior's hidden wonders. The display window has evolved beyond a mere pane of glass into a miniature product experience center. This groundbreaking renovation aims not only to restore and elevate the space but also to beautify this quiet street.



The Japanese background of the owners imbues the space with philosophical elements, resonating with the cultural richness of the surroundings. Every hand-tied Furoshiki not only encapsulates blessings and intentions but also serves as a conduit for touching the emotional depths of visitors. When unfolded, the Furoshiki fabric reveals not just the blessings contained in a metal box but also the delicate balance between warmth and rustic charm this space possesses.



Upon passing through the main door, a meandering pathway accompanied by the interplay of light and shadow unfolds, akin to an entrance ritual distinct from conventional confectionery shops. A Rainbow Eucalyptus welcomes guests, echoing the natural essence of the space and narrating a tale of blessings. In the atrium, a chandelier crafted from frosted white glass hovers in the air, reminiscent of Japanese origami. It cultivates an indescribable ambiance between subtle lighting and eco-friendly paint. Dark furniture serves as a canvas, highlighting the color and texture of the wraps.



Through astute design, every corner of this space is laden with narrative and emotional value. From each material selection to every ray of light, all become part of this aesthetic tale. Here, every object possesses its meaning and worth, offering not just material pleasure but also an emotional sense of being treasured to customers. Every encounter and each beam of light are indispensable parts of this space, perfectly blending past and future, tradition and innovation, to construct a multi-dimensional space that is both practical and emotionally resonant.
