A membership studio opened in Shinbashi 4-chome, Minato-ku, Tokyo, that uses AI technology to analyze swings and simulation golf to measure data as you play around the course. The plan is minimalist, consisting of a lounge, two golf ranges, and restrooms. The hitting range has a green base color and brown artificial turf, a color tone not found in other facilities, to give it a luxurious feel. The lounge is accented with GOLD, the theme color of AIGIA Studio, and is a luxurious space where golfers can watch live golf broadcasts on a large screen while sipping champagne during golf breaks. The brass gate and reception counter, the stainless steel ceiling and walls that are reminiscent of the surface of the water, the herringbone floor, and the restrooms with glass mosaics are all materials used with sporty and luxury in mind. The universal design mixes quality with period elements, creating a space that offers a trip to a different world from the image of Shimbashi.
