Villa De Nozomi
Villa De Nozomi is a senior care residence in Tokyo, Japan, operated by a hospital. The interior is arranged like an art gallery, with geometric graphics applied to the walls and floors. In the main lounge, the ceiling is built at slightly different height levels and marked with colored circle shapes, which alters the lighting reflections and gives the space more depth. Wooden panels and PVC sheets are cut into small pieces and joined into new patterns to keep costs low. The building has six stories and a gross floor area of 3600 square meters.
