The interior design features plants growing out of the space in a contiguous art composition that extends from the first basement level to each of the floors above.
At the front of the entrance is a glass composition of plants, symbolic of the hotel itself.
Each guest room includes two-dimensional artwork evoking flowers, with each floor having a different color and meaning.
From the first basement floor to the 13th floor, wall paintings in the elevator hall are evocative of tree trunks.
Trace [1F lobby]
Artist: Satomi Den
This piece expresses the desire to capture the shifting beauty of nature. The artist molds actual natural objects and creates wax forms, not in the form of natural objects as they are, but with slight modifications to express them in the form of glass. These glass pieces incorporate many metal casting techniques, crafted by casting with crystal glass.
LIFE FLOWERS: Flowers That Add Color to the Heart [Guest rooms]
Artist: Mamiko Naito
Guest rooms feature floral artwork to brighten the space. Each floor's pieces link with each other in a theme, depicting flowers offering a soft illumination on the heart and bringing color to the human emotions that come as the seasons change. For instance, on the 2nd and 3rd floors, works focus on "beginnings and budding," while the 4th floor's theme is "growth and enjoyment."
Mural Art [Elevator hall]
Artist: Team ASANTE
These compact murals adorn the walls of each elevator hall, from the basement to the 13th floor. The artwork changes from floor to floor as the symbolic tree soaks up groundwater, grows fully, sprouts leaves, flowers, and then fruits. The color palette for each floor is tied to the art in the guest rooms. The art at the rear of the reception on the first floor evokes welcoming flowers.
Swaying Forest [Restaurant]
Artist: Atsushi Ozawa
This piece is focused on evoking the state of burning flames. To create this piece, the artist hammered softened iron in a hot environment of over 1300°C, randomly and incessantly striking over and over to create forms resembling flickering flames. The work evokes the movement of flames and the spread of heat, creating a subtly warming image that pervades the entire space.
