I found this video earlier, it's a clip showing the opening of the new flagship store for Nike in Tokyo, with clips from the architect explaining his design decisions etc. I found it really interesting,having been to Harajuku (where the store is opening) on my trip to Japan last summer. The way in which the feel of the place is captured and also a tiny portion of Japanese modern culture is portrayed. I also found the architect speaking about the design interesting; and of course the design itself. there seemed to be so many different aspect to the design, the way the clip is shot, each camera shot you see, feels like a new building.
