Entry Description

The project takes place in Kamakura in Japan, an ancient capital and now a holiday destination that offers numerous shrines, temples, and historical monuments. The forecourt, designed with an emphasis on preserving the pine trees and stone wall, creates a sense of comfort and openness in the guest room porches facing it. The tree-lined inner court creates an alley-like space where the greenery prompts approach while adding vibrant colors to the comfortable lobby. Hotel Metropolitan Kamakura blends harmoniously with the scenery of Kamakura blessed with history and nature.

Bio

We strive to provide unique and spatial experiences that
stimulate the five senses: beautiful urban skylines, design that lifts
spirits, and unexpected pockets of nature -- all encompassed in a
cocoon of security and safety.
