In the heart of Ginza, one of Japan’s most exclusive districts, a clinic dedicated to regenerative treatments and aesthetic well-being has opened—an oasis of calm amid top fashion boutiques, restaurants, and refined sushi bars. Designed by Union-Tec and overseen by architects Daisuke Okuma and Eri Nagashima, the facility is conceived as a “sanctuary of beauty,” drawing inspiration from a culture deeply connected to nature. The interior design favours curvilinear lines and enveloping surfaces: sinuous walls and indirect lighting flowing from rounded ceiling profiles create a sense of fluidity and welcome. The monolithic material chosen for floors and portions of walls evokes white marble with amber veining, fostering intimacy and enhancing the organic forms, as if the spaces had been carved from a single block. The Diesel Living with Iris Ceramica collaboration lends the interiors an elegant, contemporary character: large ceramic slabs, precious textures, and calibrated contrasts dialogue with mirror-finished metals, polished brass, and artisanal details. The reception lounge becomes a serene waiting area where the continuous graphic pattern of the surfaces amplifies the overall design and multiplies light reflections. The project balances a dominant neutrality with richer colour accents, creating scenographic moments that guide visitors—such as the sculptural glass pendant leading along the corridor to the private treatment rooms. Underscoring the project’s quality is the contribution of Iris Ceramica, bringing an approach rooted in aesthetic and technological research, reliable performance, and environmental sustainability throughout the materials’ life cycle. The surfaces help craft an immersive, memorable wellness experience, combining sensory comfort, easy maintenance, and a clear Made in Italy identity.
