Client

A Japanese company operating fashion buildings, mainly commercial facilities directly connected to train stations, with trend-focused shops that are especially popular among young women.

Client needs

Because of the ageing and generally dark atmosphere of the space: remodel the central flower bed, install wall panels to brighten the space, and fully renew the furniture.

Design response

The central flower bed is redesigned as a corner table, with tile materials for a brighter, lighter atmosphere. Design panels are installed on the walls, and the new furniture and materials are coordinated with the existing floor tones to create a sense of unity, resulting in an overall brighter and more elevated atmosphere.
