PharmaEssentia Japan — Tokyo: taking down the wall next door

Concept

Walls down

At first the owners would allow only a door between the two units. After checks on the structure and fire rules, almost all of the dividing wall was removed.

With the wall gone, the west windows and their view are open to everyone, and guest and staff-only zones could be separated at the entrance.

01 · Choice

Big tables to booths

Places range from large team tables to single booths, chosen by task.

02 · Change

Movable partitions

Desks are placed for future moves and additions, and meeting rooms use movable partitions so rooms can change size.
