Nakano Ekimae Breast Clinic — voids to the ceiling and light like a pergola

Introduction

Feeling more spacious than it is

Voids up into the ceiling, light falling like light through a pergola, and wooden walls with rounded ends that seem to run up into the ceiling space make up the design.

Scattered scene by scene, they make the space feel larger than it is. The materials, chosen for their unevenness, feel gentle on the skin, like pottery.
