About Leverage Kontorindretning

Leverage er en kontorindretning, der samtidig fungerer som et træningsfacilitet for læring om sundhed. Det 407,2 kvadratmeter store rum omfatter et videostudie med træningsudstyr og et seminarrum. Seminarrummet ændrer udseende fra dag til aften, og en barhjørne åbner om aftenen til sociale sammenkomster. Stribemønsteret på gangens gulv fortsætter ud på glasset i mødelokalet, hvor en særlig regnbuefarvet folie får striberne til at skifte, når besøgende bevæger sig forbi. Et lyssystem med justerbare farver skaber varierede stemninger med minimalt energiforbrug.

Production Technology
In order to create a variety of atmospheres with little energy, a lighting system that can freely change colors was adopted.
The walls of the meeting room are painted with an environmentally and health-friendly special paint.
To reduce environmental impact, the bar counter made of steel pipes, big tables and custom lighting were reused from the previous office.
Through consideration of materials and lighting plans, we aimed to both enhance the user experience and reduce environmental impact.
Design Challenge
We wanted to create an encounter for guests visiting the office with the brand's iconic YouTube studio.
Therefore, we decided to make a three-dimensional hole in the welcome wall in front of the entrance.
The shape of the deep hole was repeatedly studied using computer graphics, and finally completed by hand by craftsmen.
Inspiration
INSPIRATION:

Office design for LEVERAGE inc. developing the VALX fitness brand that has a passionate fan base in Japan.The office will not only be a place to work, but also a place to learn and socialize.
To express the company's commitment to continually inspiring its customers, the concept was set to "WOW!"
The welcome zone is illuminated with blue and red LED lights representing "calm and passion". The hole in the center of the wall was inspired by the company's expansion through many obstacles.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2021 in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Japan and finished in March 2022.
