The Tokyo Showroom by GOOD PLACE Wins Prestigious Award

GOOD PLACE, an innovative architectural firm based in Shibuya, Tokyo, has achieved a notable milestone with their recent accolade at the esteemed A' Design Award 2026. The company's project, the ‘Schneider Electric Innovation Hub Tokyo,’ was honored with a Bronze award in the Interior Space and Exhibition Design category. This recognition places GOOD PLACE among the top 5 to 10% of entrants in this internationally recognized design competition, underscoring their commitment to creating exceptional spaces.

The concept behind the award-winning showroom is “Immersive — a space to experience the worldview.” This vision was realized to allow visitors to not just observe the technologies and services presented but to actively engage with and understand the Schneider Electric experience. This immersive design encourages visitors to feel and contemplate the showcased elements, transforming a conventional showroom into an interactive environment that stimulates learning and interaction.

GOOD PLACE’s design team, led by Ryota Umino, played a crucial role in bringing this visionary space to life. Umino is part of the Strategic Design Department at GOOD PLACE and has a track record of designing successful corporate offices. His previous projects include award-winning designs such as the Goldwin Tokyo Headquarters Office and the offices for Akkodis Consulting and Recruit Company, enhancing his reputation in the industry.

The ‘Schneider Electric Innovation Hub Tokyo’ is scheduled for completion in September 2025 and aims to serve as more than just a display area; it is envisioned as a dynamic and engaging space that reflects Schneider Electric's values and innovations. For those interested in exploring different aspects of GOOD PLACE’s work, the company has numerous design projects showcased on their portfolio page, reflecting their design philosophy and commitment to enhancing user experiences through spatial design.
