This project was designed with the criterion corresponding to architectural programs.
The main idea is the contrast between a superficial facade and the interior space supporting anyone's activities .
The very commercial lighting design dose not work after the crisis of economy in Japan.
The light on the facade looks impressive and works
functionally at the same time.
Lights of passages is making horizontal lines.
Lights of the maintenance for the tower turn on a few times a month and makes vertical image strong.
The lighting design of this tower is essential for this project.
It was realized through model simulations and tests on the actual site.
