Making use of a limited space

 

Look at all the kitchenwares being hanged on the white plaster wall (Japanese traditional plaster, Shiikui) !!

Machiya, used to be taxed according to the width of the entrance in old days, has a long, narrow floor plan called "Unagi-no-nedoko" (Eel's bed) .

Therefore the renovation of Machiya involves a shortage of storage space. As a solution we decided to display all kithcen items as a part of interior design, even utilising the depth of the posts. I hope you will like it.
