Inside, the pattern on the walls is revealed to be made up of roof-tile like ceramic elements, that neatly complement each other.

Inspired by both Japan and Spain, the roof-tile like ceramic represents the use of this architectural element but crafted in very different ways. The roof tiles in Japan are glazed and shiny, while in the Mediterranean, the tiles are left natural, exposing its texture.
