Tokyo practice Klein Dytham Architecture referenced traditional Japanese festivals, bathhouses, fishponds and timber houses for the interior of Google's Japan office, located in the Roppongi Hills tower in central Tokyo.
Occupying several floors of the Roppongi Hills tower, Google Japan is intended to repeat the colourful and fun designs of the internet company's other offices, but to also bring elements of local history and culture into each of the spaces as Google request that each of their national offices around the world reflects the unique culture of its location.
The designers chose Stefano Giovannoni’s Magis Family First and Jasper Morisson’s Trattoria Sedia to create a colourful, simple yet comfortable seating in the large lunch room accommodating hundreds of Google employees daily.
