FOURDIGIT — Aoyama: a café-like office built for team synergy

FOURDIGIT is a design and technology company that has built digital services since 2001. Its Aoyama head office is designed to bring specialists together rather than keep them apart — with plants everywhere and the calm of a café.

Concept

Design beyond

“DESIGN BEYOND” is FOURDIGIT’s vision. To get the most out of design, it does not split disciplines; it delivers the team’s strengths as a full package — from research and UX consulting to design, build and growth.

The Tokyo office exists to strengthen that synergy: quiet places to make things, meeting rooms, and a community space where people from different teams meet. Plants are placed throughout, and the whole floor has the relaxed feel of a café.

01 · Workspace

Focus among the green

The work area is arranged for concentrated making. UX designers, designers and developers form a new team for each project, and the greenery and warm materials soften a busy studio.

A garage in Bangkok, tatami in Vietnam

Beyond Tokyo, FOURDIGIT has studios in Bangkok (2019) and Ho Chi Minh City (2020) that work as one team. Bangkok has two buildings under blue roofs with a garage, a courtyard, a kitchen and even a bath. Ho Chi Minh City is a two-storey villa with a large kitchen and living room, a garage for motorbike commuters and a tatami corner for the local after-lunch nap.
