Home for all- Kamaishi, Kamaishi, Japan. Architect: Riken Yamamoto, 2013. 'Home for all'-Interior View with residents passing th


In Kamaishi, Iwate Prefecture, architect Riken Yamamoto designed a cafe by day / izakaya – Japanese-style bar – at night. This little watering hole is located next to one of the temporary housing complexes where the displaced still live. It welcomes the displaced residents to come inside and chat to friends, old and new, hopefully alleviating their sense of isolation and desperation.
