This complex building located at urban center is composed of hotel, pacela(shopping mall which has 100 shops and restaurants) and SOGO(department store). Highrise building is second tallest in Hiroshima and well-known as the landmark.
Must-see point is well-designed atrium. It makes me feel depth of the space by using two semicircles(photo#1). Moreover paver, signs and benches that aims for a high-class image must be praised.
I believe planners achieved optimal solution for the place.
