Given conditions
Several long-vacant units and an ageing envelope needed to become one place capable of supporting a large café operation and a new scene in the city.

JUGYO STATION
PROJECT STORY
A long urban canopy shaped as an open station.
We opened up a building that had been divided into small commercial units for more than 30 years, connecting arrival, bakery, counter, seating and outdoor terrace as one continuous sequence.
DESIGN RESPONSE
Design decision
After reviewing demolition, structure and major renovation conditions, we opened the dividing walls. Architecture, interiors and construction were coordinated so arrival, bakery, counter, seating and terrace could be read as one flow beneath the long canopy.
Completed change
The fragmented units became an open station linking indoor and outdoor scenes, bringing daily operation and the visitor's stay into one spatial order.
