TOKYO, JAPAN
AMAN TOKYO,
OTEMACHI TOWER
It’s no surprise the hometown of
global sensation and organising
queen Marie Kondo is still steeped
in the traditional and culture-rich
aesthetic of traditional Japanese
interior design. Clean lines, natural
materials and uncluttered living are
at the centrepoint of this style, and
high above the buzzing streets, neon
signs and matcha desserts of the
fast-paced city, the long-established
aesthetic endures. At Aman Tokyo,
33 levels above the Otemachi Forest,
late Australian architect Kerry Hill
crafted a space honouring the pillars
of traditional Japanese design, with
a contemporary edge to match the
colourful, bustling city below.
