At AXS Satoh Design, aiming to make buildings into ZEB (Net Zero Energy Buildings), we provide comprehensive environmental solutions—unifying design, structure, and building services as an integrated architectural firm—ranging from the effective use of natural energy to the development of environmental technologies utilizing ICT.

Our initiatives toward promoting ZEB conversion

What is ZEB?

ZEB stands for Net Zero Energy Building, which refers to a building defined by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry as one that "aims to achieve a net-zero balance of annual primary energy consumption by maximizing energy self-sufficiency through the introduction of renewable energy, while maintaining a high quality of indoor environment through significant energy conservation achieved by curbing energy loads via advanced architectural design, actively utilizing natural energy through the adoption of passive technologies, and introducing high-efficiency equipment systems."
As a comprehensive architectural firm, we provide ZEB technology as a one-stop solution by combining advanced building equipment with the maximum utilization of architectural methods such as thermal insulation, solar shading, and natural ventilation.
