Abenoma

Naoya Matsumoto design as Architects

This is the project which young designers meet and cooperate to make a place where people get together in Abeno(near Tennoji), Osaka. There used to be a row house at a back alley in a part of Abeno and now it has been remodeled into a gallery space called “Abenoma”.


We produced a self-build space by using an uncommon but simple material “tracing paper” with local residents. I found it interesting because it is fun to crumple paper and anybody can do it.


This huge space made by paper is like a secret base and turns into a bar at night.I hope people get together and make new friends there and enjoy the space.


This is the project by folding, pasting, sticking paperto make a space and hopefully to stick(band) people and people, people and the space as well.
