The project site was the former location for a shipping company comprising of multiple warehouses and devoid of trees. The site was transformed into a bridal facility with a resort-inspired landscape through the help of 600 palm trees primarily from Kagoshima. The sago palm planted at the entrance is over 300 years old that was brought in from Shodo Island. In an effort to design a more extraordinary space, a dense vegetated area was installed to screen the inside from the outside. To enforce the effect, we carefully selected rare flowers and trees.
