Outline

The new city hall for Izumo was designed to serve as a symbol of the city. Easy for citizens to access and use, the structure was crafted with a focus on flexibility and efficiency. It can accommodate future layout alterations in accordance with changes in headcount or service requirements. The building's meeting space encourages lively discussion among city council members, while advanced safety measures allow it to serve as a central disaster-prevention facility. A central atrium provides a sense of unity with the park for an open, airy feel, while deep horizontal eaves and special tiling lend the structure an elegant, dignified air.
