Moreover, we sought to reflect on the history of the district of Gotanda, an area whose name echoes its rural rice farming origins. Thus the idea is to create an office space that harmoniously incorporates these elements.Save this picture!A kimono is born from a single piece of cloth, origami is the art of transforming a single sheet of paper into various forms. Furoshiki is a single piece of cloth used to wrap objects of all shapes and sizes. Limited resources have spurred a variety of Japanese innovations that have made their way into the creation of everyday goods. In celebration of this cultural heritage, we endeavored to create a space that satisfies various functions and requirements through the ingenious volume of a simple flat surface, made of aluminum, a limited material.Save this picture!Here, a single "recycled" aluminum sheet is spread across the entire ceiling and fills the space with waves full of fresh vitality, reflecting light and producing soft glimmers like that of the sunlight shining on the surface of the paddy fields of yesteryear. The beautifully overlapping metallic waves create areas of different heights and expanses of space that change freely, just as water flows in a lively and reactive manner, thus suffusing the area with the necessary functions and atmosphere.Save this picture!In the entrance area, the intense flow of the waves creates a dynamic space where the height of the space changes vertically in a dramatic fashion, giving visitors a strong sense of movement, and promoting stimulating encounters and ideas. In the sofa lounge and desk areas, the waves become calmer and the height of the space increases, providing an environment geared for relaxation and concentration along with a sense of openness.Save this picture!In the bar and kitchen areas, the waves are kept low and calm, creating an intimate space for people to liven up and enjoy deeper conversations. Sunny and cloudy skies, sunrise and dusk, and other seasonal and daily changes in natural light are experienced with subtlety, allowing for a variety of atmospheric spatial experiences depending on the location of visitors and the passage of time.Save this picture!The beautifully transient overarching waterscape creates a poetic rhythm in response to the changes in environmental light, producing a mysterious radiance imbued with profound depth that enhances the enjoyment and pleasure of artisans engaged in creative activities.Save this picture!Sustainable Design Methods We used "recycled" aluminum sheets for this space project. Moreover, since they give the space its singularity, we adapted the assembly method of the aluminum ceiling parts so as to be able to disassemble and reinstall them when moving the business to a different location. In doing so, we devised a way to effectively reduce the waste, and the cost of store relocation, and create a recycling-oriented society.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessProject locationAddress:Shinagawa City, JapanLocation to be used only as a reference.

While Monopoly GO maintains the core dice-rolling and property-building mechanics of the original board game, it also introduces new elements and features tailored for mobile gaming. The initial gameplay appears pretty straightforward, but as the players level up, the challenges intensify.

Starting in 1939 (under the company title Timely Publications), Marvel Comics has a long history of compelling villains who have transitioned from page to screen. From cosmic conquerors to street-level schemers, these antagonists have challenged heroes and shaped the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But not all villains get a chance to linger in the shadows or plot their next move.

Black Ops 6 and Warzone feature fast-paced action. From diving into a match of Team Deathmatch in Multiplayer or competing in nonstop gunfights in Resurgence, both games offer a little something for everyone, whether it be laid-back casual fun or high-stakes action. However, if players want to get a little more competitive, then kitting out their loadout with some of the best guns is recommended.
