About Global Hub Square オフィスビル

グローバルハブスクエアは、日本の淡路島の森の中に建つオフィスビル群です。本プロジェクトでは、東京のオフィスを、澄んだ空気と潮風に包まれた静かな自然の地へ移転しました。大きな窓が陽光と風を室内に導き入れ、各室を風景へと開いています。カフェテリアでは地元の食材を使った健康的な食事を、社員だけでなく島民にも提供しています。連続する優美なアーチと大きな中央階段によって、建築は寺院を想起させます。延床面積は2257平方メートルです。

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.
