Voyage Group Offices – Tokyo
Channeling the inspiration behind a well-traveled journey, the Voyage Group manifests an adventurous spirit in the realization of their Tokyo offices as they embark on providing premier internet marketing services.
SEMBA were engaged by business ad media company, Voyage Group, to design their offices located in Tokyo, Japan.
The office embodies the group’s corporate philosophy of “360-degree amazing” while also conveying a story of “voyage (travel over the sea).”
On the photogenic entrance floor, the center of which is made up of company bar Ajito, the space is connected seamlessly despite its different areas, including Lagoon, a café space with flexible layout, Oasis, the company library that also serves as a concentration space, Hill, whose design attracts the eye to different levels, and Beach, where visitors can relax and even lie down. When updating the office from its traditional form, we aimed to achieve the principle of Activity Based Working (ABW), under which you change your workstyle depending on your task and Cultured ABW, which is based upon culture and creed. The entire office is designed so that employees can change their work style according to their work at the time while also absorbing the culture and creed of Voyage Group.
The office area on floors 16 and 17 have meeting rooms at the core of the floor while leaving the desk area as flexible as possible. Also, by placing a deck laden with amenities, we intended to reduce the burden of the back office and encourage communication between employees.
