About Global Hub Square Batiman Biwo

Global Hub Square se yon konplèks bilding biwo ki chita nan yon forè sou zile Awaji, nan Japon. Pwojè a te deplase yon biwo Tokyo pou l mete l nan yon kote natirèl trankil ki antoure ak lè fre ak briz lanmè. Gwo fenèt yo pèmèt limyè solèy ak van antre nan enteryè a epi yo ouvri chanm yo sou peyizaj la. Yon kafeterya sèvi repa sante ki fèt ak manje lokal, ni pou anplwaye yo ni pou moun ki abite nan zile a. Achitekti a fè sonje yon tanp gras a yon seri d achi elegan ansanm ak yon gwo eskalye santral. Sifas total pisman an se 2257 mèt kare.

Unique Properties
The work style has changed dramatically in Japan after the Corona pandemic. The design labo client decided to move their Tokyo office to a remote island. They choose a site in the middle of the forest, where no offices or traffic jam are around, instead, fresh air, sea breeze and nature are surrounding the location. The client wanted a beautiful view of the landscape, large windows to let in plenty of sunlight and wind come inside, and a cafeteria, where both employees and resident of the island could enjoy healthy meals made with local food.

Inspiration
The island where this building is located is said to be the first island created by a deity in Japanese mythology.The deity loved the island and lived there for the last days of its life. The design labo imagined the temple as it might have existed there and the resulting design is a series of graceful arches, with a large staircase in the middle that, metaphorically, leads to heaven. the goal was to create an environment where people can feel the blessings of nature and work safely in cooperation with the residents
Project Duration
the project was completed in April 2022 in Awaji Island, Japan.
