A Conversation Between The Familiar & Unfamiliar | Hotel The Mitsui, A Luxury Collection Hotel & Spa

Cross the threshold into a world curated by designer André Fu to be "rooted in the idea of a journey."
"I wanted to capture the memory of myself discovering Kyoto"
From a restored 300-year-old Kajiimiya gate to a larger-than-life Shoji lantern to modern art by Yukiya Izumita, the story told by Hotel The Mitsui in Kyoto brings the treasured past forward into an awe-inspiring future.
What Fu designed is part of what he calls "the magic of travel. It's a conversation between the familiar and the unfamiliar."

What a privilege it is to watch this content for free. As a documentary filmmaker, these films continue to inspire my process of rediscovering my vocation. As a human being who is constantly engaging new cultures and landscapes, these films evoke in me a deeper, more soulful way of capturing the word around me. I left feeling closer to our shared humanity!
