Takii seed Fukuoka
















The site is a ten-minute walk from Hakata station, in the commercial district.
The building's first and second floors are for warehousing, and third and fourth floors are for office space. The four-story high atrium leads people directly to the main office on the third floor.
The floors are connected by an elevator with a lighting system covered in opal glass, as well as a walking-slope with 60 potted plants along the glass facade.
At night the building lights up as a lantern, presenting the entire atrium as a showcase. Since the seeds and buds handled here are sensitive to temperature and humidity, the structure of the building is SRC with material insulating panel outside the exterior concrete wall as a double skin, which shuts off the heat transmission and water leakage to the structure frame completely.
