Named Crystal Forest, the exterior is covered in stainless-steel pieces reflecting fragmented views of the street. The store will open on 29 March 2008.
The following information is from Yoshioka:SWAROVSKI GINZA Flagship Store,As the key elements of the shop, the facade is covered with stainless-steel mirror reliefs. It reflects the various scenes from the different angles and sparkles brightly like a “Crystal Forest”
Inside the store, the walls are decorated with the white reliefs all over, and the whole space gets the reflections of crystals and glitters brilliantly.
Dazzling crystals on the floors that are buried in the stone like a fossil, the chandelier sending out the light flow just like a waterfall on a sunny day, and the crystal stairs that is winding up getting the light reflections make an illusionary space fantastically.
On the second floor, there will be an opening installation called “Shooting Star”, in which crystals make a scene just like a fall of shooting stars. It will be presented only within a certain period of time.
名为水晶森林的施华洛世奇的旗舰商店将与2008年2月29号开张。店面的外部全部覆盖着不锈钢以来反射街道上的场景。在商店的里面，墙体都用白色的浮雕装饰，整个空间使得水晶的反射显得很耀眼夺目。眼花缭乱的水晶被铺在地板上，就像一些化石一样。吊灯放出的光线就像是一个晴朗的日子中一道瀑布。
（我想设计师Tokujin Yoshioka将施华洛世奇水晶的主题表现的很贴切，运用了不锈钢等一些材料来折射水晶的那种眩目、奢华的品质，现在是没条件去日本看了， 不过等有机会，肯定要去看看）
