This project aimed to harmonise with the mixed-use cultural and commercial facility 'Hareza Ikebukuro,' which opened in 2019, and the renovated Naka-Ikebukuro Park, seeking to create new appeal for the area. Naka-Ikebukuro Park underwent a transformation during its renewal, shifting from a sandy surface to a stone-paved plaza. Re-established as a space evoking the character of a European square, it now functions as a venue supporting cultural events and vibrant activity. Creating a sense of unity with this plaza became a key theme in the building's façade design.
