Design

Cosmos took 6 years from land development to completion. The whole project was jointly constructed by the architect Masatoshi Katayama, Canadian architect Michael Green, and the KYDO design team.[3][4] In the planning of the public space, the project deployed many luxurious installations, such as the 10.6 m (35 ft)-tall hall on the ceiling of which hangs the only ARS Murano glass chandelier in Asia, of which the market price is about 400,000 euros. It is carefully composed of 120 handmade glass, which won the 2019 European Design Award.[5][6]
