A concept for a modern Japanese-inspired café designed to bring natural serenity into an urban environment. The project merges traditional Japanese architecture with contemporary minimalist interiors.
Objectives:
Study Japanese spatial flow and warm lighting.
Create an inviting commercial space design.
Experiment with mood lighting and reflective materials.
Tools Used:
Software: Blender + Cycles
Assets: Custom-modeled
Post-production: Photoshop & DaVinci Resolve for subtle color grading
Design Inspiration:
The project was inspired by Japanese tea rooms and Tokyo’s quiet café culture. I aimed to replicate a harmonious blend of warm woods, minimalism, and balance.
