Bishu Village

Oshu Village has been completed and opened on the south side of Owari-Ichinomiya Station.

I was mainly involved in the design of the exterior space (plants, furniture, some of the lighting, and tree name plates). The facility is made up of two-story, transparent stores lined up on either side of an alleyway, and currently houses a Genghis Khan restaurant and a canelé shop. A craft beer shop is also due to open in the spring.

The facility has a sense of transparency due to the structural ingenuity of the building, so you can have a unique spatial experience by looking through the glass into the alley gardens between the buildings. The landscape is designed to suit the characteristics of each location between the buildings. In the center, there is a small square surrounded by trees with a distinctive stand lamp, and to the south, there is a polygonal concrete/wood bench that surrounds the symbolic zelkova tree.

The tree nameplate has a simple design with just cut-out letters of the tree's name to match the transparent architecture.
