Cool Architecture: Starbucks
It’s not that often we find ourselves appreciating the beauty of a building but when we saw this Starbucks in Fukuoka, Japan we genuinely were in awe.
Designed by Kengo Kuma the Starbucks coffee shop is situated near the famous Dazaifu Tenmangu shrine and because of it’s close proximity Kuma was cautious to make sure the commercial space didn’t look out of place in such a setting. The shop is full of wooden beams all placed in different angles and at different heights made to mimic branches in a forest so it appears that the Starbucks is sitting in the trees. Check out the pictures above.
