ARROWS — Tokyo office: diatomaceous earth and stainless steel

ARROWS is an ophthalmology equipment dealer based in Osaka. For its 85 m² Tokyo office, KATAMARI made more than a back office: a place to share goals with the doctors it serves, with a working area and a space for deep conversations, separated by glass.

Concept

Warm and precise

Walls and ceilings are diatomaceous earth, natural and warm to the touch, to calm daily work and welcome visitors.

Stainless steel stands for the precision of the equipment and an uncompromising professionalism. The two opposite materials together create sincerity and warmth.

01 · Glass

Open but separate

To keep a small space from feeling closed, glass divides the workspace from the meeting area, and the two can be used flexibly.

No catalogue furniture

Instead of standard office furniture, catalogue storage and work desks were custom-made, with care down to the details, to express the quality of service and expertise of the dealer.
