Perhaps it is fitting that this flimsy, paper-thin architecture is held together with tape.

Timber and concrete come together in harmony for a new observatory and cafe overlooking the dunes of Japan’s Tottori. Kengo Kuma and Associates designed the two-storey Takahama Cafe to swoop dramatically upwards, elevating visitors to the perfect spot for views of the city’s rolling shorefront – a key draw for tourists to the area. The cafe is built using cross-laminated timber (CLT), which emphasises the long lines of its sloping roof and echoes the sandy tones and textures of the nearby dunes.

Sustainability begins with a conversation, and acquiring customer buy-in is entirely dependent on how the conversation is framed. Clients may not see sustainability as a priority out of fear of operational costs and quality. While these are legitimate concerns, it is our responsibility as architects to listen and foster a collaborative culture that answers client issues while also reducing our carbon footprint.
