Toranomon Hills Station Tower (2)π
πThe building integrates highly public infrastructures, including: a brand - new Tokyo Metro station located underground, a light - filled station atrium and retail plaza, a cultural center at the top called Tokyo NODE, a new hotel, and rentable office space between the top - floor cultural center and hotel levels. π The design of the building's form brings many advantages to the tower, making it visible throughout Tokyo. πOverall, the tower consists of two symmetrical volumes along the north - south axis and a central active - zone space. The north volume is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top, paying tribute to the Imperial Palace. π The south volume is the opposite, narrowest at the bottom and widening as it rises, maximizing the interior views of the Tokyo Tower and Roppongi Hills skyline. ππ π #CulturalLandscape #LandscapeDesign #Design #Tokyo #TokyoTravel π
