Google recently revealed the opening of it’s latest office in the\u00a0\u00a0shopping district of Roppongi in Tokyo, Japan. Designed by Japanese architecture firm\u00a0Klein Dytham<\/a>, the interior concept was inspired by\u00a0Japanese festivals, bathhouses, fish ponds and timber houses. Like most of the Google offices, the space is characterized by its\u00a0vibrant colours and open working spaces to encourage an active interaction between employees.<\/p>\n

Each area has an altogether different theme revolving around elements of local history and culture. While one of the spaces was\u00a0imagined as a typical bathhouse with white ceramic tiles covering the floors and computer stations resemble dressing tables with large mirrors and a painted mural of Mount Fuji on the rear wall, another meeting area is designed with\u00a0traditional Japanese low tables and cushions with Tatami\u00a0floor.<\/p>\n

“Google prefers that each of their national offices around the world reflects the unique culture of its location,” says architects Mark\u00a0Dytham\u00a0and Astrid Klein. “Our design for the earlier phases of the project had taken cues from the graphics of traditional Japanese fabrics and contemporary\u00a0anime, but then Google requested an even more vivid evocation of Japanese culture.”<\/p>\n
