Sasashima Under an Elevated Railway Office

 Back to Projects list
Location
Nagoya, Aichi, Japan
Year
2022

This office was built under the elevated Shinkansen railway near Nagoya Station.
In response to covid-19, we decided that we needed to accommodate a decentralized work style and aimed to create a space in which various locations are loosely partitioned yet connected.
We designed a unique place by overlapping the civil-scale infrastructure of the elevated railway tracks, which occupy a vast area in the city, with the architectural scale of a wooden building, and creating a relationship where each is independent yet intersects with the other.

Site Area : 1392m2
Building Area : 568m2
Floor Area : 986m2
