项目 – 位于东京港区一条狭窄街道旁的"WOWK 芝公园"办公楼，由柿木佑介+广冈周 平/PERSIMMON HILLS 建筑事务所设计，对传统办公建筑类型提出了别开生面的独到 诠释。作为一座追求现代社会新型办公方式的租赁办公楼，建筑师旨在营造促进交流 的空间氛围，打造"城市新景观"。设计大胆打破了单一、均质化的标准楼层平面的僵化 模式，通过巧妙布置疏散楼梯和雕塑般的建筑立面体块，每个楼层都被赋予了独特的 个性空间。边界的打破孕育出富有特色的空间，精心设计的开口、材料和体量为采光 需求作了应对。设计师着眼于周边小规模工作场所与步行流线交织而成的独特城市肌 理，试图将这种工作生活一体化的魅力延展为垂直景观。随着现代各类技术的发展， 小型组织和个体不再受制于规模，能够承担大型工作，他们需要一个能积极工作和交 流的动态场所，这正是本项目回应的现代需求。通过这一操作，他们构筑出了诗意盎 然的全新办公体验，让新旧语境在此交融激荡：展现出小型团队和个体能够聚集、互 动、并重塑城市未来面貌的愿景。这一极具创意的方案体现了创新的空间理念如何为 密集城市地区注入活力，使"WOWK 芝公园"办公楼成为真正开拓性的建筑力作。

Feature：

Project - Nestled along a narrow street in Tokyo's Minato ward, the WOWK Shiba Koen building by Yusuke Kakinoki + Shuhei Hirooka / PERSIMMON HILLS architects is a refreshing reinterpretation of the conventional office typology. Designed as a rental office pursuing new ways of working befitting our modern society, the architects aimed to foster interaction and craft an architecture that becomes "a new urban landscape."

Defying the monotony of stacked, generic floor plates, the daring design strategically positions the emergency stairwell and sculptural massing to disrupt the "standard floor" on each level. This breakdown of boundaries generates unique, characterful spaces with carefully modulated openings, materials, and volumes that respond to daylighting requirements.

Inspired by the surrounding urban fabric of small-scale workplaces interwoven with pedestrian pathways, the architects sought to verticalize this appealing integrated work-live environment. By doing so, they crafted a novel workplace experience that poetically bridges old and new contexts - envisioning a future where tightknit teams and individuals can gather, interact dynamically, and shape the city's evolving identity.

This ingenious scheme exemplifies how innovative spatial concepts can breathe new life into dense urban areas, making WOWK Shiba Koen a truly pioneering architectural statement.
