▏A Rainbow Office Building Brightens a vibrant building in the middle of a bustling Up the Tokyo Streets with Prismatic Color the city from the office of the terrace is like a landscape photograph with added layers of color
▎If you, like us, were envious of the kiddos attending this kaleidoscopic kindergarten a few years back, we have good news. The architecture firm behind the school has another project with a similarly bold outlook.
Keiichiro Sako, of the eponymous SAKO Architects, tucked a vibrant building in the middle of a bustling Tokyo street, this time designed for professionals. Titled “Vertical Rainbow Office Building,” the narrow construction was completed in 2019 and is cloaked with a vivid facade of tempered laminated glass.
Sako’s team developed a special paint that they applied in a gradient so that “the view of the city from the office through the terrace is like a landscape photograph with added layers of color,” he says. Horizontal frames hold the material in place and add a sleek, minimalist detail. When sunlight hits the building, bright rays illuminate the offices, while evening darkness transforms the building into a beacon of glowing prisms, or what the architect playfully refers to as a “night rainbow.”
