Fumihiko Sano Studio has created a cafe and shop for San Francisco chocolatier Dandelion Chocolate, which occupies a century-old house in Kyoto, Japan.
Dandelion Chocolate is a small-batch bean-to-bar craft chocolate maker from San Francisco that has cafes dotted across the US and Japan.
The self-titled studio of Tokyo architect Fumihiko Sano, which was charged with developing the cafe's interiors, opted to use cedarwood as the main material for the project.
Customers enter the cafe via the shop space, walking past a coffee bar through to a foliage-filled courtyard wrapped with tall panels of glazing.
Fumihiko Sano Studio has previously an installation made up of Muji shelving units and a wood-lined members club in Paris.
