Outline

This flagship facility for Yamaha houses a concert hall, music school, musical instrument store, and studio. The design showcases the brand image of the international musical company, carefully blending visual imagery with aural experience and fusing tradition with innovation. The front curtain wall, with its special lattices and gold-leaf-laminated glass, acts as a screen to present images associated with music and sound. The space resonates well with the surrounding cityscape of Tokyo's stylish Ginza district.
