Floating Izakaya

A stylized floating izakaya inspired by small Japanese waterfront bars.

This project focuses on creating a cozy atmosphere through simple shapes, handcrafted props, and a balanced color palette. The goal was to combine a peaceful waterside environment with the warm feeling of a local neighborhood restaurant.

The scene was modeled and rendered in Blender, with an emphasis on stylized materials, subtle water simulation, and storytelling through environmental details such as the small boat, lantern, utility poles, and handmade signs.

This project was a fun exercise in environmental storytelling and stylized world building.
