FRONTIER SHINJUKU TOWER REPOSITION PROJECT

Clarification of requirements

We checked the things that we were asked to renovate. Since the scope of renovation of the mixed-use building was extensive, covering commercial spaces, residential spaces, and workspaces, we set out the direction of the project by carefully clarifying the requirements for each space.

Basic plan

We worked on the development of a plan for attracting more workers to the mixed-use building, as it has become less noticeable as a workplace. We created the design by considering how best to add the very office-like elements to the existing, residential-looking spaces in a balanced manner.

Implementation design

We prepared the implementation drawings and obtained the client’s approval. We prepared a set of perspective drawings, materials design, and other drawings for each space and held design review sessions with the client for their confirmation and approval.

Cost adjustment

We used value engineering to minimize design changes. We also implemented a cost adjustment by revising the construction work process and unit prices.

Development preparation

We checked legal matters with relevant authorities, as the property is a mixed-use building with shops, residential units, and office spaces. Due to the nature of the property as a mixed-use building, the construction work was subject to strict terms and conditions, so we created a schedule for the construction work by working closely with relevant parties to adjust the schedule for each construction zone.

Building environment development

We held an on-site meeting and a regular design meeting once a week, with the participation of seven outside companies. We also held breakout sessions regarding the construction work as needed and successfully completed the project.
