This art project is for a large condo with 286 housing units in Yokohama. The site is in a quiet residential area surrounded by greenery and intersecting lines of maple and cherry trees. The project is motivated to extend this organic intersection by creating a ‘promenade’ from the entrance that stretches to the library located at the end of the building via the central lounge. The four sculptural pieces are made of local trees grown at the site but cut down for redevelopment at the beginning of the project. The four different types of executions show the rich texture of Japanese Zelkova and maple trees.
