The Spiral is an art and cultural facility commercialized by a major women's underwear manufacturer. The refined appearance of the facade facing the busy Aoyama-Dori Street is a reflection of the lively street atmosphere and the neighborhood's design and fashion-oriented disposition. The diverse elements that comprise the facade and its complicated composition exemplifies modernity of the highest quality. These elements are manipulated as an architectural collage to create a face that serves as a source of culture. As you move further down the first-floor exhibition gallery, the hubbub of the street gradually gives way to tranquility. A spiral ramp circling the skylit atrium at the deepest end of the floor leads up to the second-floor shops. The third-floor theatre is accessed by a ceremonial staircase that climbs along the street.
