Norm Architect's Tokyo’s Bellustar Hotel
Norm Architect's Tokyo’s Bellustar Hotel Bellustar Hotel combines minimalist interiors with great views of the city
Bellustar Tokyo, a Pan Pacific Hotel, spans the top nine floors of Tokyu Kabukicho Tower, a new 47-storey skyscraper with a tumbling water fountain-inspired façade by architect Yuko Nagayama in the neon-lit Shinjuku district.
A sharp new Tokyo skyscraper and an ancient Zen temple garden may appear to share few overlaps. Yet the idea of bridging these two worlds lies at the heart of the new hotel project, hovering 200m above the capital’s urban streetscape.
