About Ajinomoto Taipei Headquarters オフィスインテリアデザイン
味の素台北本社は、台北市に位置する377平方メートルのオフィスインテリアである。中山北路沿いの天井高8メートルのロフト空間を活用している。デザインは、不完全さの中に美を見出す日本の「侘び寂び」の美学に基づいている。劇場のキャットウォークが垂直空間の輪郭を描き、空調・換気・照明の配管を支えるとともに、メンテナンスのための安全なプラットフォームとしても機能する。左右対称の六角形レイアウトにより、家具の柔軟な配置と、固定席を持たないフリーアドレス制が可能となっている。防音ブースはプライバシーを確保し、騒音を軽減する。

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- Situated on the historic Royal Avenue of the Zhongshan North Road business district, the office occupies a rare loft with an eight-meter ceiling height. The space was transformed into a grand and elegant environment for the multinational corporation, emphasizing Japanese cultural aesthetics, efficient lighting, three-dimensional circulation planning, and structural restoration.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- 377m2
- Tags
- Daking
- Production Technology
- The office redesign incorporates a theater catwalk concept to outline vertical spaces, serving as a relaxation area for employees and integrating functional pipelines for air conditioning, ventilation, and lighting systems. This also provides a safe platform for future maintenance work.
- Design Challenge
- Adapting to the high rental costs in the urban area, the renovation was strategically executed in two phases for efficient relocation. The design challenge was to create a multipurpose space that could accommodate diverse working and interaction needs, including soundproof phone booths for privacy and noise reduction.
- Research
- The project required an in-depth analysis of sunlight exposure, energy-saving lighting plans, and the integration of ergonomic principles to enhance the quality and functionality of the workspace, focusing on human-centered design and maintenance accessibility.
- Inspiration
- The design concept was inspired by the Japanese aesthetic of Wabi-Sabi, which finds beauty in imperfection and transience. This aesthetic guided the renovation of the century-old office for Ajinomoto, a leading producer of amino acids and related products, which has established a critical presence in the medical and electronics markets since its founding in 1908.
- Project Duration
- The project started in Jun. 2022 and finished in Sep. 2022 in Taipei City.
- Operation Flow
- The office layout adopts a symmetrical hexagonal OA arrangement, accommodating flexible furniture arrangements that support a Free Address system without fixed seating positions. This setup is responsive to the changing demands of remote work, video conferencing, and pandemic-related safety measures.
