Bay Arce Restaurant

Interior Space and Exhibition Design Bay Arce Restaurant by MAYUMI EHARA Bay Arce is a seafood restaurant located in the cruise terminal building at Kanazawa Port. The dining area faces the sea through a full glass wall, and the view is revealed gradually as visitors move in from the entrance. The seating volume forms a large rounded shape that recalls a ship, built from fine pieces of Noto Hiba wood from Ishikawa Prefecture. A stepped floor allows the sea to be seen from every seat, and a gentle slope gives access to wheelchair users. The wooden ceiling is bent by hand into a wave form and is lit at night.
