SAISEI Office Building in Kandanishikicho / Saisei Kenchiku Laboratory
This project is to legalize and utilize a 53-year-old illegal building in Kanda Nishiki-cho. Both sides of the building had public open space, but because the building was blocked there, it was not being used effectively. We try to create a new public façade that would enhance the value of both the building and the surrounding open space through the process of legalizing the illegal state of the building by "reducing the structure ".
