Introduction

Sapporo Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. has officially announced the name of its ongoing office building project located in Shibuya's Higashi 3-chome area. This new development will be called Sreed EBISU +L and serves as the sixth addition to their acclaimed Sreed series in the Ebisu area. The building is slated for completion by the end of November 2025, marking a significant step in enhancing the area's appeal.

About Sreed EBISU +L

The building will rise ten stories, with floors two to ten designated as setup offices. These spaces will be fully equipped with essential amenities such as reception areas and meeting rooms, allowing tenants to commence operations immediately after moving in. Among these, four floors will feature fully furnished set-up offices incorporating art and greenery, fostering a seamless environment that supports the growth of creative startups. The objective is to create a “space where inspiration is born,” perfectly melding both work and relaxation.

Vision for the Space

Sapporo Real Estate aims to create varied workspaces that cater to the different growth stages of businesses. By integrating art and greenery into the design, they aspire to enhance comfort and creativity in work environments, contributing to the overall value of the Ebisu area from the perspective of work-life balance. The decision to name the building Sreed EBISU +L reflects a desire to illuminate and revitalize the surrounding area, serving as a beacon (or lamp) for the neighborhood.

Artistic Integration

In a departure from the norm where tenants typically place art after moving in, Sreed EBISU +L will feature art from the outset. Collaborating with NOMAL ART COMPANY, a project team called “Ebisu Art Conference by Sreed” has been formed, comprising of four artists, each bringing unique styles to create a stimulating environment. These artists will conduct field research in the Ebisu area to understand local characteristics and work closely with people in the community to make relevant artistic expressions in each office’s designated wall space (3m x 7m).

Featured Artists

1. Yoko Inoue - An illustrator and collage artist whose works range from book covers to hotel artworks.
2. Yusei Sagawa - Known for his abstract style, Sagawa specializes in live painting and murals, with notable projects for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
3. Enna Yamashiro - An illustrator whose works span fashion and advertising collaborations, significant exhibitions in department stores reflect her artistic evolution.
4. Tomoyuki Washio - Engaging various mediums, Washio has an eclectic approach to art, exemplifying the synergy between urban culture and personal expression.

Green Initiatives

With the direction of Green Display Co., the office will incorporate biophilic design principles, infusing nature into the workspace. The building will host a remarkable variety of plants, providing a calming environment that enhances focus and creativity. Central to this concept is a symbolic tree over two meters tall, representing growth and inspiring connection to nature within the workplace.
