KONAMI SUPER CAMPUS Annex Center

This facility was designed for employee training and welfare. A crucial task was to protect and make use of the breathtaking scenery offered by the mountainous environment while observing the national park's stringent building restrictions. Much of the structure was built underground utilizing the site's steep south east inclination , and a northern corridor was equipped with a continuous series of skylights to create a pathway of light and wind for a comfortable, energy-saving space. A special pathway organically interconnects numerous levels, serving as a location for people to meet and an attractive conduit linking the earth with the sky.
