The hotel&#8217;s intriguing design concept is expressed as a minimalist exterior concealing colorfully exuberant interiors, a nod to the Edo period when excessive displays of wealth were prohibited, and merchants were said to have dressed modestly in public. However, in private, flamboyance and opulence were free to be expressed, and <span class=\"xn-location\">W Osaka<\/span> typifies this transformation. The interior design was conceptualized by concrete, the <span class=\"xn-location\">Amsterdam<\/span>-based design studio behind the extraordinarily chic <span class=\"xn-location\">W London<\/span> and W Verbier. The design narrative shines a spotlight on the contrast between Japanese minimalism and the limitless excesses of urban life, illuminated by <span class=\"xn-location\">Osaka&#8217;s<\/span> bright neon lights at night. <\/p>\n<p>\n        <b><br \/>\n          <i><br \/>\n            <u>A Colorful Japanese Welcome for Guests<br \/><\/u><br \/>\n          <\/i><br \/>\n        <\/b>Upon arrival at <span class=\"xn-location\">W Osaka<\/span>, guests enter an illuminated tunnel inspired by the Japanese art forms of cutting and folding paper, <i>origami<\/i> and <i>kirigami<\/i>, with images of nature and seasons reflected on its walls.
