 term plans for the Coolsingel spanning from 2009 to 2011. Yohei Taneda has been
 commissioned by SIR to design a temporary facade for the Monisima Cube at Kruiskade 2
 in Rotterdam.
 Rotterdam received the bombing in World War II, and old streets were lost. Now there are
 only darken modern constructions stand close together. Taneda planned to show a beautiful 
 color in the city, the externals of a store that the demolition was waited were redecorated
 with beautiful Japanese colors. surrealistic atmosphere was made to appear in the city. And
 also at its basement, Taneda's exhibition to introduce production designs for films was held
 during IFFR (International Film Festival Rotterdam). Taneda got a image of ocean and water
 for the exhibition because of that friendship of the Netherlands and Japan has began with a
 ship "De Liefde" came to Japan. And also the film "AIRDOLL" that was shown at IFFR has a
 image of water. Taneda got all image together and showed up the water design inside and
 outside of this cube. This exhibition made people feel the enfolding atmosphere of water.
