TYRANT Inc. takes over the design of JINS Besta Sayama store

 

JINS Besta Sayama by TYRANT Inc. is a roadside eyewear store located on the premises of a supermarket in the suburbs of Sayama, Saitama Prefecture. The design features a wooden frame with a gentle gable roof. The entrance and terrace are positioned under the two-meter eaves projecting to the north and south, surrounded by various types of bushes and medium-height trees like silver tea trees and Russian olives. Constructed using the conventional wooden frame construction method, the building adheres to a 2.35 m × 4.2 m grid.

wood, gray mortar and metallic textures adorn the interior

 

The grid is based on the dimensions of fittings and passage widths, ensuring that pillars don’t obstruct the layout. The wooden surfaces of pillars, beams, and sheathings are complemented by floor mortar, gray wall painting, and a reddish-brown accent of antirust coating on the metal.

 

The large north-to-south opening creates a bright space with a neat, clean appearance. TYRANT Inc.‘s design prioritizes simplicity and comfort, utilizing architectural elements such as the warmth of wood, inorganic gray, and transparency, rather than relying on decorative treatments, to establish a straightforward and inviting commercial space.
