The distillery that produces a craft gin in Joetsu city, Niigata, is a heavy snowfall area. Ground level of the distillery and the gallery on the second floor, the third floor which can be used as a multi-purpose laboratory.
The project aims to create a distillery where, in the repeated movement between the ground level and the open upper floor in the mountains and sky, people gain an appreciation for the sense of distance created by the space, are given the perception of being both between and part of the overall concept, and feel a strong connection with the earth through all their sense.
