Ao, Commercial building in Minato-ku, Japan
Ao is a commercial building in Minato with 16 floors and two basement levels, featuring retail spaces, restaurants, and offices across approximately 22,000 square meters. The structure combines various functional areas to enable shopping, dining, and working in a single location.
The building was designed by the architectural firm Nihon Sekkei and opened its doors in November 2008. Its opening contributed to the modern development of the Aoyama district.
The building houses various retail spaces and dining establishments, including a luxury supermarket that showcases a wide selection of Japanese and international products. This blend of shops and restaurants reflects the character of Aoyama, where shopping and dining experiences naturally intertwine.
The building is located at 3-11-7 Kita Aoyama, just one minute from Omotesando Station, and shops typically open from 11:00 in the morning. Visitors can reach the building easily and should know that opening hours vary by individual store and restaurant.
On clear days, Mount Fuji becomes visible from the building's open gardens, offering visitors a visual link between urban architecture and nature. This rare sightline makes the rooftop or garden areas a calm retreat in the middle of the busy district.
