Entry Description

The design is inspired by the concept of “Uramasari” which is a Japanese concept of being simple, modest, and classic on the outside and rich, expressive, and colorful on the inside. The contrasting ideas are expressed in the visitor area (subtle and harmonious) and the staff area (vibrant and active). The workplace is organized by a uniformity that gradually and sometimes surprisingly reveals colors and themes derived from local culture and traditions. The office embraces an agile work strategy that offers flexibility and a more collaborative environment.
