The "kitsch" beauty of concrete arches✨
Enveloped in an irregular arch like a croissant,
a pink bulldog greets you🐶💕

As the name suggests, this cafe is themed around "French" and "kitsch." French comes from the owner's love for French bulldogs and patisserie culture. Kitsch is an expression that celebrates the beauty that exists in imperfection.
The design by TOUCH Architect features rhythmic arches inspired by Gothic architecture. However, rather than being symmetrical, the design is a series of irregular, "slightly off" arches.
On the first floor, the arches envelop visitors, creating light and shadow like stained glass. The 12-meter counter guides the eye to the second floor.
. On the second floor, an inverted arch forms the ceiling, soft natural light pours in from the skylight, and there is also an indoor garden.
The material is exposed concrete. The texture of the "board marks" is intentionally left to highlight the raw beauty = kitsch. The contrast with the pink French bulldog statue, greenery, and lighting is also striking.
🎨 Impressions and attractive points
Architectural experience: You can experience the arch structure as if you were inside a giant croissant
Light and shadow: The stained glass-like effect actually casts a beautiful shadow on the floor
Materials and texture: The ruggedness of the concrete emphasizes the kitschy and playful aesthetic
Photogenic: The pink bulldog and arch space are perfect for social media
