Roly-Poly Cotto / studioVASE

The story in the space can be compared to the relationship between body and mind. No matter how the visual completeness of the space is excellent, if the story is too simple or poor, if it is very similar to something, the users are not interested in it or feel empty. Even if all the restaurants in the district are disguised as original, eventually, the scene, people just line up only one famous one, means its identity makes others imitators. The true origin story makes emotions and various interpretations. The space has the possibility of being complete only with the soul of the story.
