HAIKU Hair Salon / FATHOM

A tenant building that used to be a building materials shop on City Hall Street, Hondori 4-chome, Kure City. The building had been the site of the second renovation school, and we were asked to renovate this space into a hair salon. When we looked at the existing space, we were most impressed by the materials that had been left behind in the building, such as the brick tiles on the exterior walls and the glass blocks in the passageway.
