Bold open-ceilinged spaces on each
floor act as communication hubs. As
well as reinforcing links with floors above
and below to stimulate communication
among employees, these spaces
provide stages for various activities.

LED Lighting
Stanley LED Lighting
Our LED lighting combines light distribution
techniques developed in the automotive field
with LED technology, and is used for lighting
throughout the building.
We have also added lighting developed in
collaboration with Motoko Ishii Lighting Design
Inc. and introduced enhanced energy-saving
features through power consumption reduction
as well as the creation of abundant lighting
suited to the areas where it is installed.
Entrance
Future Room
These waterproof LED lighting have
passed advanced reliability tests, including
tests for exhaust gas leakage, vibration,
and heat shock. Even in harsh outdoor
conditions, they offer bright light and
outstanding durability.
High-powered LED lighting with innovative
lens design. Soft light distributed through
80 degrees illuminates the entire room.
Even when these lights are mounted in
rows, there is no waste and uniform light
levels are achieved.
Objet d’Art: Toki no Kasanari (time overlapping)
History Room
A high-grade spotlight utilizing projector
headlight technology. Uses a one-core
LED to enhance the theatrical effect by
adding graceful shadows to the artwork.
Regular LED lighting tends to create
waste in corner spaces, but our advanced
light distribution technology links several
modules while casting uniform light over a
wide area.

Common-use Areas
Office Areas
Cafeteria
Warm white LED lighting enabling
smooth light regulation is used to achieve
brightness and light rendition appropriate
to areas where people need to relax and
concentrate.
Stanley’s line lighting has been teamed
with existing integrated system ceilings
to achieve both versatility and attractive
design. These newly-developed integrated
system ceilings with built-in lighting enable
flexible layout.
Connectable line-type light sources have
been combined with diffusive lenses to
create ambient lighting that illuminates in
the manner of surface-emitting lighting.
Slim design facilitates space-saving
installation.
Waterproof wall washers are used outside.
Illuminating a three-meter wall from top
to bottom, they highlight the features of
the stone wall to cast a unique pattern of
shadows.
Basement Parking Lot
Outside Lighting
Compact, powerful LED lighting achieve
uniform illumination with a minimum of
fittings. Power consumption of just 37 W
leads to energy-savings of around 60%
compared to 100 W mercury lamps.
Compact LED floodlights measuring
approximately 180 mm2 are mounted on
the 5th floor eaves to brightly light the
exterior 17.5 m below.

Communication Hub
LED Floodlights
Multi-colored LED floodlights incorporating
red, green, blue, and white LEDs act as
both base lighting and stage lighting. An
array of lights set at varying angles of 15,
20, and 30 degrees casts uniform light
across the illuminated area.

Use of
Natural Energy
Light
Solar Panels and
Natural Lighting
Solar panels are mounted on the sloped
portion of the roof to make effective
use of natural energy. These panels can
generate around 33,000 kWh of electricity
a year. Skylights, exterior louvers, and
reflectors fill the open-ceilinged spaces
with soft ambient light.
Air
Natural Ventilation
The open-ceilinged spaces throughout
the building are used to naturally ventilate
office areas and save energy in the mild
spring and autumn seasons.
Water
Use of Rain Water
Rain falling on the rooftop and roof panels
is stored and filtered in an underground
tank for use in toilet cisterns and plant
watering.

In addition to LED lighting tailored to each area, our new
head office features artistic lighting in collaboration with
Motoko Ishii Lighting Design Inc. and a sculpture by
Takayuki Otsuki, decorating its interior and exterior spaces
with the expressive play of light.
