This office space was designed to encourage effective communication and collaboration among workers by embracing the idea of open floor plan. However, at the same time, adopting the traditional cubicle layout to provide a sense of privacy. To realize both open atmosphere and private space, cubicles were installed two stairs lowers than the hallway so that the partition does not disturb communication between workers while giving a sense of privacy.

As a specialized group with strengths of design and realization capabilities, we provide comprehensive designs related to space creation such as interior, product, architectural design, etc. We identify the issues faced by operations from a creative point of view and create designs that will become the norms of the future. We are aiming for the circulation of happiness to the whole world through design.
