Tohoku Institute of Technology Yagiyama Campus Building 1

A design that harmonizes with the surrounding environment to become a new university’s symbol

As a headquarters building to be built in the campus approach zone, we aimed to create a new symbol for Tohoku Industrial University, serving as a wayfinding point for passersby to share the university’s activities and convey the impression of a truly open university.

Internal space configuration aimed at improving student services

The “tohtech LOUNGE,” a space for gathering and exchanging information for students, the “Student Support Office,” which brings together the Office of Student Affairs, the Office of Student Recruitment, and the Office of Career Development that each had their own office, and the “Gallery,” which was set up on the first floor of the classroom building to improve student services.

Rebuilding a fragmented campus

By revising the campus infrastructure and constructing a shared underground trench, we have eliminated the disconnected routes divided by the existing facilities and created the “Central Courtyard,” “Green Courtyard,” and “Stairway Courtyard” as places for students to communicate and interact.
