Takeda Global Headquarters Office by Kashiwa Sato, Nihon Sekkei and Hiroyuki Enomoto

Home > Winners > #155290




DESIGN DETAILS
DESIGN NAME:
Takeda Global Headquarters

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Office

INSPIRATION:
The spatial concept Sato chose for the entire building is "life force," a reference to Takeda's nature-based origins in medicinal botanical garden research, which contributes to people's health and the future of medicine by creating superior pharmaceutical products. Light, water, and soil nurture trees and support life, while the connections between people create the future. Sato designed the motifs using each of the eight kanji characters.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Kashiwa Sato offered creative direction for Takeda Pharmaceutical's new global headquarters’ interior design. He created a flow from the entrance and reception to the work area, telling a tale of human life with refined modern icons of eight kanji for life, water, light, soil, tree, people, connections, and future, which represent Takeda's essence, reflecting it in the spatial design. He conveyed the company's brand image, creating a place where stakeholders can share the vision of the future.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
-

PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
Grand opening in Tokyo in 2018 and completion of the building's 16th floor communication space in 2023.

FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY:

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY:
The walls are adorned with solid Hinoki wood, which also has medicinal properties.
