OVERVIEW
光沢のある木製パネルで覆われた壁面が、カウンターに沿ってラウンドする店内。このパネルの重厚感と質感が空間の緊張感と高級感を演出している「銀座ステーキ 田島」は日本を代表する都市の一つ、銀座に満を持してオープンした。
元々クライアントには本物の素材を使って高級感や重厚感のある、質感を大切にした空間をつくりたいという意向があり、さらにヒアリングを重ねると石を使った設えには日頃より慣れ親しんでいることが分かった。そこで、石以外の素材を使って与件をクリアするアイディアとしてご提案したものが無垢板のパネルで壁面を構成するという方法だ。ベースは一枚物のカウンターに使われるような大きなトチの無垢板をカットし、厚さ13 mmに製材した1枚1枚異なる表情(木目)を持った特注パネル。大判のパネルは左右対称に割いて貼り合わせたもの(ブックマッチ)で、その模様は一見すると大理石のようでもあり、一方で木ならではの温かみも持たせることができた。これらパネルはあえて3種の異なる染色加工を施している。こうすることでパターン貼りした壁面に、さらにリズム感や表情、陰影を与えることが狙いだ。光沢のある表面は、クリア塗装を磨いて仕上げたものであり、木の質感を残しながらもそれとは異なる新しい素材感をつくり出すことができた。
徹底した特注素材の製作により、他にはない、特徴的な店舗空間をつくり上げた事例なったのではと思う。

Shiny wooden paneled walls surround the interior along with the counter. These panels exude dignity and the texture create tension and high-quality mood. “Ginza Steak TAJIMA” made its grand opening at Ginza, Tokyo, one of the leading cities in Japan.
Initially, our client’s needs were to create high quality and dignity interior using genuine materials. After having further hearing, we noticed that our client was always very familiar with stones. Firstly, we proposed the idea of using solid board panels instead of stones to constitute the walls. As for the base, we cut out big horse chestnut solid board panels into 13 mm thickness, commonly used for making counters with one piece. These specially-manufactured panels have different grain pattern expressions. The panels are then laid and pasted to produce symmetric appearance. Apparently, they look like marbles, but you can still feel the warmth of the wood. Moreover, we deliberately used 3 different types of dyeing process. In this way, you will discover even more rhythmic feelings, aspects, and the shadings in the wall. Lastly, we finished up by polishing clear paints in order to make shiny surface, yet leaving the wooden texture. We were able to create totally new-type-material.
Apart from this, we avoided using ordinary stones and woods. We selected Oya-stones (very famous stones that represent Japan). To make contrast with the shiny wooden panels, we pasted various sized glides of Oya-Stones. As for the wooden door of hanging cupboards, the surfaces are curved in the technique called Naguri, also famous for Japanese traditional curving. And for the private dining room, transmissive stones occupy the whole wall and grids made with mirrored square pipes are used for the interior. You will feel something very special here through these infinite beauties of the stones.
“Ginza Steak TAJIMA” offers full course meal of Kobe Beef and clam that are recognized worldwide. We are glad to present our design and thoroughly detailed interior. There are no other characteristic restaurants like here.
