Black steel panels of 2.3 mm thick are used for the interior wall’s surface, the door and partitions. The dimensions of the modules were determined by the method of transportation to the site, the size of the entrance access and the interval of the barstools. The lighting equipment is made from polycarbonate and SOLF sheet. By utilising only one stretch of light that goes from one end of the bar counter and through to penetrate the restroom wall, we were able to light not only the bar but also the restroom. The counter is made from old Japanese zelkova wood.
