This level also features a footbath to enhance relaxation during the experience.
Experience Art through Sounds and Lights
The collaboration extends to sound and light installations that enrich the sensory experience in the POLA Ginza space. Shibuya's abstract music, a unique sound artwork, envelops the environment, evolving without repetition. Toyohisa's innovative lighting subtly shifts between wavelengths, evoking an array of experiences, while Izumi incorporates carefully crafted scents that resonate with the visitors’ emotional states.
