Kengo Kuma Designs Capella Kyoto Hotel on Former School Grounds, Featuring Interiors by Brewin Design Office
🏨 Capella Kyoto, designed by Kengo Kuma and Brewin Design Office, opened in Kyoto's historic Gion district on a former primary school site. The hotel’s interior design emulates the staggered layout of traditional machiya townhouses, featuring 89 wood-lined rooms and 3 restaurants, including the French brasserie Lanterne. Notable elements include a central courtyard with a pond, rooms with views of local landmarks, and six suites with onsen-style tubs. This project highlights a modern homage to Kyoto's cultural heritage.
