A collection of gorgeous products celebrating Hiroshi Hara’s epic Kyoto Station (1997), a vast titan of Postmodernism, born from the astronomical budgets and limitless optimism of Japan's Bubble Era. Far more than a transit hub, it is a "Geographical Concourse"—a synthetic valley of glass and steel on the inside, and a building of geological vastness on its exterior that resembles a vessel of incalculable proportions that has come to rest in the ancient capital, mooring amongst the temples of Kyoto with gargantuan sci-fi grandeur. Hara’s "Matrix" design features floating skyways and a colossal atrium, embodying the era’s complex, high-tech philosophy. This collection celebrates the sheer audacity of late-20th-century Japanese monumentalism, perfect for those who admire the futuristic vision of a time when architecture knew no limits.
