The ideal place for weary tourists visiting the Douglas House to rest and revitalize, the Douglas Library was designed in association with Choi In-ah, the owner/operator of a famous bookstore and cultural space, who was in charge of book curation and design consultation. She carefully selected 820 books covering 7 different subjects to suit Douglas House guests. Relax with a book in the hammock as you soak in the music from a playlist curated by Daikanyama Tsutayati, the Music Concierge from Tokyo. Every week there is also a cultural salon which guests can attend.
