Working and Living in Harmony at Unito
In the ever-evolving landscape of work spaces, Unito takes a bold step forward by expanding its office at Ohashi Kaikan. Known for its innovative approach to living spaces, Unito aims to redefine how people experience work and life together.
Since its inception in 2020, Unito has pursued the vision of optimizing living conditions. Celebrating its 5th anniversary this year, the company has implemented numerous initiatives to advance this mission. Starting in July 2023, Unito began operating the 'Hotel Residence Ohashi Kaikan', with plans to relocate its headquarters there by November 2024. To accommodate further growth, they are expanding the office area on the second floor, which integrates seamlessly with the hotel residence front.
Office Expansion Project: A Concept of Living and Working Together
The expansion project isn't just about increasing space; it's about creating an environment that nurtures creativity and productivity. Leveraging the expertise of
mast, a renowned architectural firm, Unito prioritizes an interior design that reflects their corporate vision of optimizing life.
The new office area combines elements of the hotel residence with an inviting workspace, embodying the motto: "Living as You Work, Working as You Live." This new space is strategically located to be visible from both the hotel front and the shared lounge, reinforcing a sense of community and collaboration.
Within this harmonious environment, the layout includes comfortable sofas and tables, resembling a living room where colleagues can freely interact while getting their work done. The workspace is designed with focus in mind; a dedicated working area by the windows is separated from the living area by delicate, translucent curtains that allow natural light to flow in while maintaining a sense of privacy.
Moreover, the meeting room serves a dual purpose, acting as a gallery showcasing Unito's journey, making it an inspirational environment where past achievements meet future aspirations.
Unique Design Features
- - Lighting: Custom-made fixtures that evoke the dawn, representing the Unito brand color.
- - Curtains: Styled with the indigo dark color of the Unito logo to enhance the visual appeal of the living area.
- - Living Area: A harmonious mix of logo colors with comfortable carpentry that reflects the brand’s aesthetic.
- - Meeting Room: Full capacity to host 12 individuals, designed to encapsulate Unito’s journey through visual storytelling.
The design vision was spearheaded by
Masato Nemoto, the director of mast, who founded the architectural office in 2019. Nemoto’s philosophy focuses on creating inquiry-driven spaces that enrich daily life, making them ideal for residences and workplaces alike.
Remarks from the Designers
Masato Nemoto emphasized the importance of creating a space where living and working seamlessly coexist.
