NEXs Tokyo — Chiyoda: a startup base with a radio booth

Concept

LIVE feeling

Unlike a coworking space, the facility had to hold a programme and events as well as community and desks.

A plaza-like flexible workspace is at the centre, and a radio booth links online and offline.

01 · Information

Pins and displays

Visitors leave pins on an information board, and an exhibition corner shows what members do. Spaces range from a large event area to a small counter for casual talks.

02 · Tone

Monotone and wood

Monotone finishes and steel parts give the programme areas a sense of tension. The places where people mix use wood for a casual feel, and wall art serves as a backdrop for broadcasts.
