Toranomon Hospital
Aiming for an international and diverse downtown landmark
The Tōhoku Torii district is a cosmopolitan area where national embassies such as the Japanese central government offices and the American embassy are located, and where foreign companies are also located.
As the leading project of the first-class urban redevelopment plan for the Toranomon-2-chome area, the Tiger Gate Hospital underwent reconstruction with the aim of becoming an international medical facility in the global era.
The exterior features vertical ribs to express the delicate sensibilities of the Japanese people. The colors are based on the "Forty-Eight Tea and a Hundred Mice" motif, which is considered the epitome of Edo elegance. The ribs are made of white mice, and the base is made of Edo mice. The ribs are angled, allowing the building to appear white depending on the viewing angle, or to become a calm gray, changing its appearance constantly. In the redevelopment of the city, we aimed to create a hospital with a rich expression.
To realize a large hospital with over 800 beds in a limited space in the city center, it has been designed as a high-rise hospital with a height of 99 meters, and the floor layout is unique to improve functionality.
The first to fifth floors house the entrance and outpatient departments, the eleventh floor and above houses the wards, and the middle six to ten floors house the surgical departments and administrative departments, reducing staff movement and streamlining operations. To improve security and accommodate the diverse needs of patients, access to the wards is via an elevator on the ninth floor.
