RADICAL TRANSPARENCY
Shaped like a medicine box, the minimalist facade of the square building expresses a modern and progressive image of the pharmacy. The interior space adopts a futuristic aesthetic. The glass panel wall installed at the bottom of the exterior walls gives a moderate sense of openness. It is inspired by Yukimi Shoji, a Japanese paper and wood sliding door with a glass layer on the bottom. The interior space is also partitioned by glass panel walls to provide transparency, instilling trust in the customers.
