HOSHIGAOKA TERRACE

Aichi 2003

This is a commercial facility that has been completed as the interior core of a large commercial complex in an exclusive residential area in the suburbs of Nagoya. The complex includes an adjoining department store, futuristic commercial buildings and existing facilities. The plan was for all these facilities to be pulled together as one.

By making use of gentle slopes, the walkway areas to get around enable the lines of vision of people "watching and being watched" to intersect, creating an enjoyable and lively city area. Also, the arc-shaped "TERRACE WEST" and the straight-shaped "TERRACE EAST" create a new city attraction.
