Sugamo Shinkin Bank / Shimura Branch

Tokyo, Japan

Inspired by the Japanese traditional sliding screens, Emmanuelle has been developing “Shikiri”, a new concept which literally means “dividing space with colors” in English. She creates spaces using colors, not as a finishing element applied at the end of the design process in order to decorate the space, but as three-dimensional layers, which create the space. By a very distinguished use of colors, she designs new concepts, new atmospheres which give emotions to people.
