设计特色： Hirotaka福冈店堪称空间叙事的杰作，TORAFU建筑设计事务所在福冈天神新地标"ONE FUKUOKA BLDG."的39.36平方米紧凑空间内，创造出了一个无缝融合怀旧中世纪美学与当代精致感的零售环境。该项目作为Hirotaka珠宝品牌在九州岛的首家直营店以及日本第十家门店，体现了建筑师对"中世纪现代主义"主题的深刻理解和精湛演绎。

设计理念以"柔软"和"光泽"为核心指导原则，通过精心策划的材料调色板得到完美体现。温润的黄铜带有微妙的包浆效果，丰富着色的木材纹理，以及光泽象牙色调的饰面，共同营造出既熟悉又令人耳目一新的复古未来主义氛围。建筑师巧妙地为展示设施赋予圆润的形态，创造出独特的复古未来主义印象，将怀旧情怀与现代创新完美融合。

空间的核心设计元素是一个多体量层叠的雕塑式展示岛台，在近乎方形的平面布局中起到空间锚定的作用，同时在紧凑的足迹内建立起强烈的建筑戏剧感。正面设置了荷兰设计师Dirk van der Kooij设计的再生塑料"The Fresnel"灯具，投射出空灵柔和的光线，不仅改变了空间的物质性质，更让柔和的光线遍布整个空间，创造出引人入胜的氛围体验。

最引人注目的是后墙设置的复古物件，其形态让人联想到民族文化符号，为空间提供了宁静与象征性的存在感。镜面抛光黄铜、木材以及受光凸显的边缘装饰相互重叠，营造出如同"当代图腾"般的独特氛围。这些元素与隐藏在墙角的间接照明以及从地面延伸至天花板的镜面相互作用，创造出无限的空间反射，将空间体验放大到远超其物理边界的程度。

建筑师对感官过渡表现出卓越的关注细节，引入具有吸音性能的压缩毡质地毯，当顾客从大楼坚硬的公共石材表面踏入这个私密的珠宝环境时，能够立即感受到空气质感的微妙变化。这种设计手法体现了建筑师对用户体验的深刻理解，创造出建筑师所描述的"密度丰富的慷慨虚空，静静地放大了Hirotaka珠宝的精致力量"。

Project Name: Hirotaka Fukuoka Store

Location: Fukuoka City, Japan

Design Team: TORAFU ARCHITECTS

Total Floor Area: 39.36 m²

Completion: 2025

Feature: The Hirotaka Fukuoka Store stands as a masterpiece of spatial storytelling, where TORAFU ARCHITECTS has created a retail environment that seamlessly bridges nostalgic mid-century aesthetics with contemporary sophistication within the compact 39.36-square-meter space in Fukuoka's prestigious "ONE FUKUOKA BLDG." This project, serving as the jewelry brand's first directly operated store in Kyushu and tenth location in Japan, exemplifies the architects' profound understanding and masterful interpretation of the "Mid-Century Modern" theme.

The design philosophy centers on "softness" and "luster" as core guiding principles, manifesting through a carefully curated material palette that achieves perfect expression. Warm brass with subtle patina effects, richly stained timber textures, and glossy ivory-toned finishes collectively create a retro-futuristic atmosphere that feels both familiar and refreshingly modern. The architects skillfully imbued the display fixtures with rounded forms, creating a unique retro-futuristic impression that perfectly merges nostalgic sentiment with contemporary innovation.

The space's central design element is a multi-volumetric sculptural display island that serves as a spatial anchor within the nearly square floor plan, while establishing powerful architectural drama within the compact footprint. The front features "The Fresnel," a recycled plastic lighting fixture designed by Dutch designer Dirk van der Kooij, which casts ethereal, gentle illumination that not only transforms the space's materiality but also allows soft light to permeate throughout the entire space, creating a captivating atmospheric experience.

Most striking is the vintage object positioned on the rear wall, whose form evokes ethnographic shields, providing a presence of tranquility and symbolism to the space. Mirror-polished brass, wood, and light-catching trim details overlap and interweave, creating a unique atmosphere resembling a "contemporary totem." These elements interact with indirect lighting concealed behind wall corners and floor-to-ceiling mirrors, generating infinite spatial reflections that amplify the spatial experience far beyond its physical boundaries.

The architects demonstrate exceptional attention to sensory transition details, introducing sound-absorbing compressed felt carpeting that allows customers to immediately perceive subtle changes in air quality when stepping from the building's hard public stone surfaces into this intimate jewelry environment. This design approach reflects the architects' profound understanding of user experience, creating what the architects describe as "a dense, generous void that quietly amplifies the delicate strength of Hirotaka's jewelry."

Design Team - TORAFU ARCHITECTS stands as a distinguished Japanese architectural practice founded by Koichi Suzuno and Shinya Kamuro in 2004, based in Tokyo, under the creative direction of founding partners, the firm has developed a reputation for pioneering multidisciplinary practice that transcends conventional architectural boundaries. The practice operates on the foundation of "architectural thinking," applying rigorous spatial logic across diverse project typologies including architectural design, interior environments, exhibition curation, product development, spatial installations, and film production.

Koichi Suzuno and Shinya Kamuro bring exceptional architectural experience and deep understanding of contemporary building practices to the firm. Under the leadership of founding partners, the practice has cultivated a distinctive design methodology that seamlessly integrates conceptual rigor with material innovation. Their portfolio encompasses landmark projects such as "TEMPLATE IN CLASKA," "NIKE 1LOVE," "HOUSE IN KOHOKU," and the internationally acclaimed "airvase" series. The firm's experimental approach to spatial design was exemplified by "Light Loom" (Canon Milano Salone 2011), which received the prestigious Elita Design Award Grand Prize.

The firm's design philosophy emphasizes that cross-disciplinary collaboration is as important as architectural precision, not rushing to standardized architectural solutions but believing that architecture should be a result of thorough understanding of spatial conditions, cultural contexts, and programmatic requirements. Through in-depth dialogue with clients, they formulate the core elements of the project then offer their expertise to transform creative concepts into architectural reality. TORAFU ARCHITECTS believes that exceptional design comes from collaboration with specialized consultants and artisans, they love to challenge themselves and push the design boundary further, with innovation being the key to maintaining their practice vitality.
