Tokyo Midtown (Tokyo, Japan)
We return to Japan where we find more than just a mall. This is Tokyo Midtown , a complex consisting of six buildings in which in addition to commercial space we find three blocks of offices , two museums , the city's first Ritz-Carlton hotel , luxury apartments , the headquarters of the Japanese video game company Konami and a park that delights all the people who visit this enclave of the city. In addition to all this, those responsible for the management of this space are concerned with the programming of activities such as yoga in the summer months or ice skating .
In the most purely commercial aspect, the Tokyo Midtown Gallery houses many shops and fashion houses, interior and decoration spaces , restaurants , cafes and bakeries , bistros and even a greengrocer's shop . And, if for some reason also highlights this impressive shopping center is to host numerous gourmet food stores. The place where these types of stores are concentrated is designed in such a way that the space simulates a bento box, a very used Japanese food tin, made in wood and lacquered in black with a layer of gloss. This example shows how careful architecture and decoration are in the Tokyo Midtown shopping arcade. Finishes in wood, water and flower arrangements are the elements that draw the architecture of this place and whose purpose is to transmit values such as harmony and sensitivity.
As a curiosity, in Tokyo Midtown, Coppola's film aficionados can enjoy a great evening at the Coppola Wine Cellar and get a first-hand look at the filmmaker's more wine-making facet.
