"Utakata" means a bubble.It is momentary and easy to break. Similarly, this space will disappear completely, when time has come. Because the owner requested us to return to original condition, we designed "Utakata" style soho. We removed all tatami and painted the base wood floor, removed boards of a ceiling and exposed concrete surface.Every desks and shelves were movable and designed in same module.This SOHO is doomed to disappear like a bubble.
