Chinza No Manma Ao
The concept of this architecture is based on the Shi-de, which represents a special area in the Japanese Shin-to religion, and the shape of the Shi-de has been incorporated into the architecture. The logo of the store is based on the concept of the Shime-nawa, a sacred rope that represents the sacred area along with the Shi-de, and the shape of the rope is used as the logo symbol. The design thus embodies the Japanese concept that everything from the architecture to the brand is related in meaning.
