The house
lyfCreative coliving hub
It runs as a creative coliving space, where travelers balance compact private studios with shared work lounges and community events.
What it’s good at
Listed
Local illustrators paint Hakata textile patterns alongside graphics of Fukuoka street food.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Imaizumi Park sits directly outside, and the transit hub of Nishitetsu Fukuoka Tenjin Station is a five-minute walk away.
The rooms
Custom graphic wallpaper inspired by Hakata textiles lines the compact studios, and corner units open onto private terraces.
At the table
Refuel serves morning coffee and evening drinks at the counter, and guests cook together in the communal Bond kitchen.
How it began

Cast aluminum panels on the facade mimic leaf veins, circulating water through vertical greenery to cool the street below.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
