Project View Project View Grand Front Osaka South Building Tower Aグランフロント大阪 南館・タワーA019JR大阪駅北口に面した街の顔となる施設です。街全体の統一感を保ちつつ単調にならないよう、曲線やオーガニックなフォルムを用いた柔らかな表現としています。高層階オフィス外装には、自然換気システム「エアインテーク」を設け個性的な表情にしました。エントランスの巨大柱「ウィッシュボーン」が訪れる人々を迎えます。Facing the Central North Exit of Japan Railways Osaka Station, this project has a decisive impact on the face of Osaka. While preserving harmony with the character of the district, it avoids monotony through a sinuous expression of curves and organic forms. The natural air intake system of the high-rise oce tower facade adds a unique accent. Another iconic feature is the giant “Wish Bone” column in the atrium lobby of the main entrance.Year Book 2014Project DataCompletionMar 2013Osaka City, Osaka, JapanOce, Commercial facility, Showroom10,571㎡188,076㎡38 above ground, 3 basementS partially SRC, RCLocationBuilding UseSite AreaTotal Floor AreaFloorsStructureAwardCo-designed by Nikken Sekkei, OBAYASHI CORPORATION2014 JIA Architect of the year2014 Lighting Design Award
