JAPAN'S BEST-DESIGNED OFFICES
Concept
Immersive
As technology becomes more advanced and abstract, values need to be passed on as experience. Layout, lighting, materials and routes were all designed around immersion, so visitors sense electrification, digitalisation and sustainability with all five senses.
01 · Circles
Everything leads to the Control Center
On the floor, random-sized circles share one axis with the main exhibit, a curved display called the “Control Center”, quietly guiding eyes and feet towards it. Above, 360° tube lights follow the floor lines; their irregular shape was studied with a visual programming tool.
02 · Contrast
Black ceiling, white walls, wood
The ceiling is painted black, while the grid of system lights is left unpainted and the carpet tiles are laid in a chequerboard, leaving faint straight lines. Walls for content are white; the area about environmental work uses wood-grain materials.
