Looking For Nothing In Particular,

I found this new building, 


all photos by Daici Ano courtesy Louis Vuitton, the reason for posting it is the building is the new store of Louis Vuitton, it is the newly renovated Ginza Namiki-dori shop, which opens on March 20, 2021, which brought back memories of our visit to the London store in December 2020the Japanese store has been renovated over the past 3 years,

Japanese architect Jun Aoki, designed the façade, and NY-based interior designer Peter Marino, designed the interiors,

Jun Aoki used a doubly-ply glass structure that gently undulates, creating the effect of a shimmering pillar of water. The glass is also treated with dichroic film, which reflects some colours while allowing others to pass through,

 which means that it is a stunningly beautiful structure that changes colours depending on the lighting, the water theme even carries inside with hints of sea life and water scattered throughout the store, 

what a stunningly beautiful exterior the building really has.
