A complex facility in Sumoto City, Awaji Island, renovated from a red brick spinning factory built in the Meiji era. While the heavy brick exterior that feels the history remains as it is, the interior is a creative space where a modern-design cafe, workspace, and kids' space fuse. Here you can touch dishes using local fresh ingredients and crafts unique to Awaji Island. The sight of former modern industrial heritage coming back to life as a community exchange place is beautiful, making it a perfect modern stop-off spot for enjoying nostalgic photography or relaxing in a sophisticated space between travels.
