Mitsui Designtec Co, Ltd is an interior design firm that designs wide range of spaces extending to Offices, Homes, Hotels and others. Our new office, CROSSOVER LAB was opened in Ginza, at the center of Tokyo where the latest culture and information intersect, while holdig strong history of traditional performing arts such as Kabuki. We renovated three floors of the buiilding that has carved a history of 60 years into unique spaces, based on the concept of CROSSOVER. The idea is to combine our knowledge and methods of space creation cultivated in various fields with the personality and expertise of individuals. 

When we reimagened the future of the post-pandemic office, we believed that the future office be aimed at creating added value through collaboration, not a place to work alone, thus we redifined "Office = A place where people gather to amplify ideas". In the office, employees have an opportunity to choose a workspace according to their mood and purpose and move around freely. Such environment will enable people’s working mode to switch naturally, enhancing a ground to generate innovative ideas.
