{One of my favourite firms based in Asia - Wonderwall - had the interesting challenge of designing a visitors’ centre at the Homangu Kamado Shrine. The building was conceived in the image of a ‘hearth surrounded by an earthen floor,’ says Masamichi Katayama (of the firm), ‘a reflection of the uniqueness of the land, which is called Kamadoyama because its shape resembles a cooking hearth.’ The idea of love and compassion is expressed throughout the interior facade with the random placement of pink-hue gradients of marble tiles, with the shrine’s crest positioned amid the cherry blossom motifs used on the ceiling and walls. The shrine sells ofuda and omamori, talismans and charms to bring good fortune and ward off evil.} -- source link
