The public space holds a lounge and a dining room, and joins the role of a club reception with everyday home life. Grey is the main color, applied on delicate spray-painted walls and coarse-textured stucco walls. An orange sofa in the lounge and a blue long bench beside the dining table add contrast and balance the color temperature. A central island style television wall defines the lounge.

An important element of this design was to bring out the appeal of the materials used. The main material used was western red cedar, which is also used in their first store in Japan. As a way of showing the material, Riki Watanabe stacked up a mosaic pattern by piling together pieces one by one like a parquet, making use of the essence of materials uneven colors. Despite using the same materials, by cutting them out, Riki Watanabe was successfully able to vary the expressions depending on the viewing angles.
