OMRON HEALTHCARE Head Office
Kyoto 2011
A company lounge titled “Gen.” The room name has a double meaning and refers to the origin of all things under the sun or the color black; black dyed raw material was used for the washi-making. The play of light and shade created by the transmitted light produces a mysterious atmosphere. The top floor lounge surrounded by glass on three sides has dynamic views of the ever-changing sky; the fourth wall is made of washi embedded with mirrors to reflect the moving clouds and shifting skies.
