There is a scene where wheat grows and bread is baked every morning in a wood-fired kiln. We would like to provide a space where you can get to know the production process through Campagne (German country bread), experience how to eat at a cafe, and propose eating habits. We also want to include in the architectural plan to open the building in the area so that it can be used by the local people as a place where the threshold is low and calm so that it can be used as a part of life. I think it will be a beloved place if people from afar can take a break by cycling, add it during the dog walking course, or take a short break to pick up and drop off at the nursery school. As a specific example of opening to the area, it is possible to use it as a semi-outdoor store as a face-to-face coffee stand, and use it easily or at the eaves without entering the store. It's about providing a space where you can sit on a bench and use coffee and bread as if you were on a detour, rather than having a meal like a restaurant.
