FOODHALL koya
Food hall "eka" that conveys the charm of Koya's traditional crafts
1. 紀の川つなぐ屋台
Workshop / 2015 / KOYASAN
Mount Koya, located in a basin-like flatland surrounded by eight mountains called ``Hachiyo-no-mine'', is a sacred Buddhist site founded by Kobo Daishi Kukai as a Zen training hall in 816. The city is formed around the main training hall called "Danjo Garan". Koyasan is now a world-famous tourist destination, but due to the development of modern transportation, more and more people are rushing around the city instead of taking it easy. Therefore, I designed this folly in the hope that it would be an opportunity for visitors to notice the existence of something invisible and have time to relax and prepare their minds.
