THE BANK OF FUKUOKA Minami-Kokura Branch

THE BANK OF FUKUOKA Minami-Kokura Branch

A reconstruction project that called for an environmentally friendly bank branch.
The building has achieved Nearly ZEB certification by using passive methods to reduce the environmental impact, such as a "layered" floor plan that places non-air-conditioned rooms and back rooms around the perimeter where the outside heat load is high, and deeply carved openings that prevent direct sunlight from reaching the interior of the building.
In recent years, steel construction has become the mainstream for bank buildings, but here, the exterior is reinforced concrete construction with earthquake-resistant elements, integrating design and structure, and contributing to avoid the risk of rising steel prices and construction delays. At the same time, the reinforced concrete framework is finished on facade, creating a highly designed exterior. The building is fitted with formwork and finishing material "MI Deck" (manufactured by MEC Industry) to create a warm and open space that meets the social demand for wood use.
