Firstly, visitors reachs the elevator hall which is installed a reception counter. From the hall with an impressive monochrome contrast, they can catch a glimpse of the wooden entrance space through the glass door.

The corridor is divided into right and left, the president’s office room, rest spaces and the kitchen are arranged on the left side, and the meeting area and the main office room are arranged on the right side.

In order to respond promptly to visitors and quickly grasp internal trends, the president room is located closest to the entrance and in the middle of the traffic.

There are large and small meeting spaces on the left and right, and a passage leading to the office is arranged in the center.

The sunlight from the south passes through louvers and projects impressive shadows on the floor.

From the horizontal opening facing the west side,workers can see the various aspect of the city that is changing every moment. I expect they can concentrate their business with relaxing mind in this office space.  Image Courtesy © Jun Murata  Image Courtesy © Jun Murata / JAM  Image Courtesy © Jun Murata / JAM
