After working at Jun Aoki & Associates, established Yuko Nagayama & Associates in 2002. Completed Showa Women’s University in 1998. I feel that it is important to enrich spaces other than the office and to have ideas for detailed elements such as materials, light, wind, and greenery that create this richness. As working styles change, it is necessary to review traditional office spaces. More and more offices are being created through renovation. The presence of the fixtures is minimized, and architecturally solved light is used to create light spaces suited to each scene. The bookshelves in the entrance stairwell are entirely illuminated, creating a light wall-like space that enlivens visitors’ spirits. In addition, a thin LED line light, only 10 mm long, hangs from the ceiling above the desk. The ambient lighting is so small that it is almost imperceptible, but it is so effective that the space changes dramatically depending on whether it is lit or not. When the building was made into a skeleton, the structural arrangement of the beams was fairly well organized, and as there were only short beams in the middle of the slabs on each floor, ambient lighting was installed beside the beams to evenly illuminate the slabs, creating a softly and gently glowing ceiling surface. The president’s office overlooks the lounge, and the greenery of the fifth-floor terrace can be seen from the fourth floor, creating a new perspective.Īs a company that deals with light, we were conscious of the light environment in the working area. A major modification to the building frame is the atrium, where the slab between the fourth and top (fifth) floors has been removed, leaving the bridge section. The upper floors are a lecture room, lounge, and the president’s office, connected by a stairwell.Ī climbing wall at the entrance, a lounge, and a garden terrace on the roof provide places for employees to change their minds while working.
#PROJECT OFFICE SPACE ARCHIVE#
The entire building is seen as a large tree, with storage and archive shelves on the lower floor as ‘roots,’ meeting rooms and employees’ offices on the middle floor where ideas can ‘sprout’ while exchanging opinions, etc., and a lecture room and lounge on the upper floor and the open president’s office connected to the building by a stairwell. The 25-year-old office building was purchased and fully renovated.
“Office in Hirakawa-cho” is the headquarters of a company that sells LED elements and plans and sells lighting fixtures.
