이전 장소의 기억은 현재 공간을 디자인하는 주요한 모티브로 제공되며 이것을 구성, 디자인하는 재료와 형태로 구현된다.
The Pool Aoyama is situated near Kotto Street in Minami-Aoyama, on the 
ground floor of an apartment building constructed in the 1970s.
Formerly used as an indoor swimming pool, the interior has been 
renovated to provide a space for a fashion brand to bring their concepts
 to life. On our first visit to the empty pool, we were drawn to the soft light 
that filled the space, and the charm of the well-worn walls and floor 
that had come through decades of use. Accordingly we have retained the beauty and allure of the original 
interior through a minimal amount of alterations and furniture. In 
addition to offering increased functionality, the newly designed 
interior also allows daylight to continue to permeate through the glass 
ceiling.
