Futuristic Work Place - Meguro Office Space by Nendo (GALLERY)
[Edit]

Functional use of space for meetings, workspace and storage that manages to separate but maintains a feel of connection between the spaces. The design is meant to make you think of hanging cloth or waves. You move between each work space by stepping over the lowest points of the divider. Might be rough for office runners but I’m sure employees are probably getting a work out as well as clean aesthetics.
According to Nendo: “When you stand up and look through the whole space people, shelves and plants seem to appear and disappear as though floating between the waves.” Wouldn’t want to be hungover and have to go to work in “space” like that.
The office is located near the Meguro river in Tokyo, on the fifth floor of an old office building. We wanted the usual spaces and functions – meeting space, management, workspace and storage – to be separate but also to maintain a sense of connection between them. To achieve this effect we divided the space with walls that seem to sag and flop like a piece of cloth held up between two hands, enclosing the various spaces more than the usual office dividers but less than actual walls.
