Capella Kyoto
In Miyagawa-cho, one of Kyoto’s historic kagai districts, Capella Kyoto reworks the spatial logic of a machiya through Kengo Kuma & Associates and Brewin Design Office. Courtyards, narrow transitions and low-key materiality make the 89-room hotel sit naturally within the neighbourhood’s layered streetscape.
