Flower Arrangement Workshop
Create your own miniature artificial flower arrangement, guided by the artistry of Shizuka Nihonyanagi, founder of Specé Styling. Each participant will craft an elegant green arrangement set in a traditional Japanese wooden box, harmonizing natural textures with modern aesthetics, a perfect keepsake or travel souvenir.
This hands-on experience allows you to feel the delicate balance between Japanese minimalism and contemporary design in an intimate, creative setting.
Cocktail Experience — “Stories of Matcha and the Seasons”
THE LIVELY BAR bartenders will present exclusive original cocktails inspired by “wa” — the Japanese spirit of harmony.
Developed specifically for this event, the lineup reimagines Japanese ingredients such as matcha, passion fruit, and strawberry through a contemporary lens.
■ Original cocktails Menu
Oedo Hoppa
A matcha and cream blend evoking the playful elegance of Edo culture.
Early Summer Rikyu Fizz

Ichigo-Ichie
A poetic encounter of matcha, black tea, and strawberry, inspired by the Japanese phrase “Treasure every meeting.”
