NEW SHOP & ENVIRONMENT
Ueno Toshogu Shrine Juyosho / Meditation Pavilion
（Page 62)
This project is composed of a corridor approach to Ueno Toshogu
Shrine and a garden near 600-year-old sacred tree. The approach
was designed to include a "Seishinsho" a resting place for purifying
the mind, and an “Juyosho” where amulets and sacred objects are
given to worshippers. The roof of the rest area used timbers of a
big gingko tree, which was once stood in the shrine site as fire
protection tree and later cut down because of possibility of
collapse. So, the roof represents the gingko spreading the
branches and leaves. Juyosho is a ceremonial space of which
window commands views of double rhombus lattice of the shrine
and the approach and shrine where maidens works against the
window. The roof also used double rhombus lattice. One edge of a
rafter points to the north (location of Nikko Toshogu) and the other
edge to the direction to Sumpu (location of Kunouzan Toshogu).
Therefore, in the Juyosho, you could vividly imagine how Shogun
Tokugawa Ieyasu was deified as Tosho Daigongen, at the
anniversary of his death, by migration of his entity from Kunouzan
Montain, flying over sacred Mt Fuji.

all day place shibuya
（Page 112)
A new type hotel in Shibuya. The first and the second floor of the
building have a beer bar, kiosk, coffee stand, and pizzeria. Giving
opportunity for interaction between local people and the tourists,
the building has a large opening and uses effective floor materials
that fuses the outside and the inside. Introducing smart check
system, there is not a face-to-face counter but a circular
communication table in the reception area, which makes hotel
staff and tourists feel comfortable, sharing the same travel
information and feeling. Avoiding excessive decoration and
staging, the interior of guestrooms makes travelers, who return
from bustling city, feel like themselves.

They collected the best of art, technology and materials, like
stone, wood, iron, foils, plastering technique, and craftmanship.
The interior environment is surrounded by walls and light. The
hotel concierge is familiar with culture and geography of Kyoto.
You can get one of “ippitsusen” notes that the hotel stocks for
hotel guests and it tells you a suggestive story of sightseeing in
Kyoto. Hospitality motto is that one inn keeper entertains one
guest. A guest room, deigned as a tearoom, is functional and
comfortable. Wet areas are workable, and a desk is so big that
user can dine, and daybed.

AMANEK BEPPU YULA-RE
（Page 168)
This hotel is in Beppu, Ooita prefecture, one of leading hot spring
resort areas in Japan. The project includes renovated annex
AMANEK INN BEPPU. Both of two hotels has 150 guest rooms.
Hotel concept is to make a carefree resort hotel whose guests
easily go out the city, and they do not serve dinner so that guest
visit nearby restaurants. The hotels suppressed expression of
style, in other words, they look anonymous and blend in street
scene of the city, quoting various vocabularies of the landscape. It
seems quite natural, considering the context, as the local people
have freely remodeled the buildings in Beppu city from long ago,
which makes the city like a maze.
