Shibuya Tsutaya Commercial Complex
Ayano Nakasato
Interior Space and Exhibition Design Shibuya Tsutaya Commercial Complex by Ayano Nakasato Shibuya Tsutaya is a commercial complex located at Shibuya Crossing in Tokyo. The building was stripped back to its structural skeleton, and the bare spaces were unified in gray materials to form a neutral canvas. Each of the two basement levels and seven upper floors has its own character, yet every area is intentionally left unfinished to allow future change. Non-essential elements were removed to create clear sightlines and simple circulation. About 500 seats and digital directories serve visitors, and a large screen on the facade shows news and event information.
