As the office is split over two floors, we were faced with the challenge of how to encourage the staff on each floor to communicate with each other; the solution was to create open spaces where people can work freely outside of the designated office areas. These free spaces overlook the Akasaka-Goyochi Imperial Grounds, providing sweeping views of the greenery below through long landscape-oriented windows that lets you feel the refreshment of being outdoors while still working indoors.

The versatile furniture arranged throughout the area offers enough privacy for working alone, as well as sufficient space for holding briefings and an environment that makes communicating with others easy. The furniture is made from materials with a striking yet understated elegance and in natural tones, which combine to create a fluid-style office that does not lend itself to any set image.
