・Comment from designer Mitsufumi Arai

Dance has the power to transcend eras, borders, language barriers, gender and age. Dance is a symbol of a borderless world, and one of the characteristics of Hibiya, the town of theaters.
I designed the symbol object with such a dance motif with a positive feeling that will make you start dancing.
I would be happy if it becomes an object that makes the mind and body of the visitor dance.
