SPARX
ASSET MANAGEMENT, LTD
Gate
City Office
Tokyo, Japan
The design and interior architecture for SPARX was intended to
emulate the dynamic international vision of the company's founder,
Mr. Abe. Colors, forms, and finish treatments are woven into a contemporary
palette that vibrantly represents an organization that, by traditional
Japanese standards, is different, unique, and progressive.
Entry to these private financial offices is by way of a long hallway
from the core of a large Tokyo office tower. Ferraro Choi seized
this as a unique opportunity to create a strong initial impression
that would capture the attention of visiting clients. An entry bridge,
symbolizing the bridge to the successful financial future of its
clients and Japanese investments, was created by arching, offsetting,
and highlighting the flooring from the corridor walls.
Continuing into the public area, a series of conference rooms represent
the company's international abilities. Each has a different international
theme expressed through the use of contemporary finish palettes.
To visually open the conference rooms, the hardwood flooring of
an adjacent hallway/art gallery continues through glass walls. When
privacy is desired, the conference room glass walls have the unique
ability to become electronically frosted with the flip of a switch.
Throughout the open office area, strategic use of glass within
the partitions give a sense of openness while still providing a
physical boundary to identify the two separate entities that formally
comprise the company of SPARX Management. Contemporary versus traditional
finishes and furniture were used throughout to represent the new
economy of Japan.
