カフェーユーモア
Café Humour
Near the top of a white wall, HUMOUR is spelled out in large letters. This café was said to live up to its name, "Humour," right down to the way it was remodeled.
About this photo
On the ground floor, the entrance opens wide and dark, and above it a white wall rises to about three stories. Near the top of the wall run the letters HUMOUR, with windows below them and, lower still, a sign in katakana. Toward the left, a long, narrow black sign hangs vertically.
The table of contents lists this café as "カフエーユーモア" (Café Humour), and under the photo it is simply "ユーモア" (Humour). According to the comment that goes with it, the café was made by remodeling part of a perfectly ordinary shared building, and even the remodeling is "humour," just like its name.
Among the square windows and signs on the white wall, just to the left of the katakana sign, there is one round black shape mixed in.
