Shin-Marunouchi Tower

Tokyo, Japan, 2007
A land mark development in a prestigious Tokyo location for the Mitsubishi Estate Group.

The Shin-Marunouchi building stands on a very important site in Japan, on the avenue leading to the Emperor's Palace, opposite Tokyo Station Plaza, known as the 'gateway to Japan', The symbolic importance of the area has resulted in strict town planning and codes, which together with the commercial requirement to maximise floor space, have been strong factors influencing the design for the contemporary yet formal building.
