|CONCEPT

Supervised the design of the exterior and entrance of an apartment in Nihonbashi.
The theme was how to design a narrow entrance like a corridor with a width of only 2.2m.
Taking advantage of the ceiling height of 3.35m, in order to create an even more open space, the ceiling was fitted with mirrors, creating the illusion of a 6.7m high light wall. On the opposite wall, the unglazed tiles used for the outer wall are stretched as they are, so that the consciousness is directed toward the light wall.
