新御堂筋を通るたびに、この奇妙な建物が気になっていたのですが、
どうやら住宅・商業施設・ホテルが合体した複合施設の模様。
安藤忠雄事務所のデザインということで、外観も納得。
で、なぜここに来たのか、ですが、12/22に日本最大の書店が誕生したからです。
ジュンク堂と丸善がどちらも大日本印刷の傘下だからのようですが、
開店間際のためか、えらい人、人、人・・・
少し中を見学しましたが、買い物客の列が長くて、購入はあきらめました・・・
-----------------
This building was designed by the Tadao ANDO office;
so it's understandable I can see some kind of unique outlook.
It consists of hotel, residence, and commercial zone.
One of its major, attractive space is Japan's largest book store,
which is collaborated by Maruzen and Junkudo (two major book stores).
It opened on Dec. 22th, so there were a lot of people...
Though I wanted to buy some, but gave up due to a long waiting line...
