Recently, often I see a copy of "adult ..." at the time of the opening of large commercial facilities. However, "What, Jan children's" Come to open the emergency lid not a few others called. So to speak, the 30's from the late 20's in the main stream ones that target, if from a real adult, I wonder is not the surprisingly many of them feel "Kodomoppo of" "cheapness".
The other day in these, complex "Daikanyama T-SITE" opened in Daikanyama Quirky. Not-class is tricks and children's play, the 65-year-old from the 50-year-old a "Premier Age" as the core target, it just seems to say that playground for the real thing know "adult".

Most of today's commercial facilities, in which there is a tendency to aggregate all of the functions and shops in one of the high-rise building, the facility while one by one of the quirky shop is self-reliance, and the settlements and villages the formation enclosed like. It can be said that the ideal form of "space for relaxation," using the luxury a vast land of Daikanyama.

Facade block with the motif of the letter "T" are stacked in a grid pattern, feel the playful pun in a simple architectural design. Further sign of the "Tsutaya bookstore" logo and within the facility, such as Shoppers, communication system is Kenya Hara's design, such as the landscape designer Tokiko Furuuchi is responsible, luxury also lineup of creators.

Alone entrance immediately of "cooking" corner of Building 3, a small space in the bookstore the same level of the town is provided, tickle the adult quest mind select that skilled in different from the best-selling of the masses for a "professional," and "individuality" . Further and lounge that this is read with a cup of coffee, jazz, classical, such as a space where you can enjoy the music, such as rock, do not miss the space production unleash forbidding their children to "adult aura" to Bing.
