In our job, we have been from places to places all around the country and seen different types of buildings and rooms, but so far we haven’t seen such an ideal place that makes use of golden paper. This is what “Bar the Lounge Top Note annex” in Naka, Hiroshima is about. In the inside you can find a “Golden room”. We have renovated the old house, which was built in the early days after the end of the world war II. The inner wall, sliding doors, floor and more at the tea house has all been tailored and covered of gold paper. When asked about the golden space, it might give a wealthy and extravagant impression, but in fact it is really not the purpose. The room has a soft, gloomy lighting that gives a real sophisticated atmosphere. It is a place where you can feel the original beauty of gold. Every day, even us who are making the gold paper, when we visit those kinds of places we can feel and remember these special deep emotions. It is a place that let us enjoy a feeling about the importance of what we have built on our own.
