Shinjuku Mode Gakuen Cocoon Tower

Fri, October 12, 2018, by Muza-chan

The shape of the Mode Gakuen Cocoon Tower, which is the seat of three educational institutions, was selected to symbolize the growth and development of the students learning here. So, the skyscraper features a blue, translucent cocoon shape, with aluminum bands looking like silk threads embroidering the facade.
