In this project students had to deal with the phenomena of night, in other words the shadow, the unseen, the unpredictable ‘intermediate world’ between the evening and the morning. Resting, closing the eyes – the visual world disappears, going to sleep and dreaming. All this in a place that would like to be very awake – high density Tokyo.
