Nikon announced that its new Tokyo headquarters has been completed, and from the report in PetaPixel, it’s a stunner. 

"Nikon’s new Global Headquarters / Innovation Center (GHIC) features a solar-shielding exterior façade to reduce the energy required for cooling while promoting natural ventilation and allowing plenty of daylight into the workspace. The building also has a variable air volume system that reacts to its utilization rate,” according to the article. 

The building has been designed to accommodate a variety of work styles. It features many beautiful design elements, including a grand staircase, a large dining area, and an outdoor terrace. Nikon wants employees at its headquarters to have different workspaces, depending on their preferences and the task at hand, an approach called “activity-based working.”

When Nikon announced its plans to build a new headquarters in Tokyo in November 2021, the company expected construction to begin in summer 2022, complete in spring 2024, and for employees to move house this summer. Nikon and its contractors hit the target, the article reported.
