We went to Takenaka's headquarter
in Tokyo; it is one of the biggest company in Japan. Through the corporation
report in 2014 I found the landmarks they've made during the whole 405 years
since 1610. It is surprised me that Tokyo Tower and Tokyo Dome were build by
them, and there are bunch of other famous buildings were build by them. They
made a significant contribution to the process of society by providing those
beautiful architectures. According to Takenaka's value: "Architecture's
role is to create social assets that can pass down the culture of an era to
future generations."
With the booming development of
new technologies, they also contain a lot of sophisticated technologies in
their buildings to make the work more efficient and the environment more
comfortable for living. During the company tour, we saw a lot of amazing
designs; the air can come through floors, and walls without any electronic
devises. My favorite part is they try their best to make the sunshine through
the glass walls. There are four devises at the top of the building to chase the
movement of the sun, and glass walls are everywhere in the company. In my
opinion, the sunshine can makes people feel powerful and full of energy. Japan
is a country with the highest suicide rate in the world; I think employee work
in Takenaka may have a good mood when they see beautiful weathers in the most
of the day of the year.
Another significant part is their
management method. Based on Takenaka is the Japanese company. It influenced by
Japanese through many hundreds of years. During the company tour it was
obviously a Japanese company; the working area were very quit, even there were
some little groups are discuss something or have meetings in public working
area, we barely hearted noises. It is well known that Japanese is a
collectivism society, but I still felt surprised when I found there are no
private working offices for top managers. Even their CEO is working together
with other employees in "public area".
They have a complete system to recycle the trashes in a specific room.
