At Tokyo’s new Takanawa Gateway Station, rail and air intersect. I walked the station’s glass curves and waited for aircraft from Haneda to cross oculi and ripple through reflective facades. Each frame pairs columns, edges and reflections with a passing plane to contrast earthbound infrastructure with skyborne routes. A cool, low‑key grade preserves steel, cloud and negative space. The series links a newborn land station to the corridor above—two networks moving the city in parallel.
