It was a part of the Sapporo city’s large public space improvement project, in which we contibuted to the improvement of the Ekimae-dori Underground Walkway and Sousei-gawa Park. After many rounds of discussions with city’s design committee, both spaces were successfully transformed to enjoyable public space. Key features in each space are the luminous walls with color lighting based on the city’s “landscape color gridline”, and glare less fixtures in the underground walkway, and the energy efficient and glare less LED lighting in Sousei-gawa park.
