This is a new style of community lounge that was realized by Sunshine City Co., Ltd. directly managing the vacant section of the 3rd floor food and beverage floor of Sunshine City Alpa. We were in charge of planning support, design, layout, and construction. The space is composed of a lounge space where workers can do desk work and a kitchen space where different businesses operate during lunch time, and is suitable for a variety of scenes such as not only work but also meals, refreshment, and event use. In addition, there is a cafe space where "BYRON BAY coffee", which is popular for its organic coffee, is open. It is a lounge space that does not specify how it is used as a place to connect "people and people" and "people and things", where a wide variety of people gather and act as a base for promoting new communities. The name of the facility, "SOLARIUM", means "sundial" in Latin, so it is an original name that is appropriate for this place where various people gather and interact depending on the time of day. [Social issues / Customer issues / Requests] Due to the changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the options for places to work have increased, and a proposal for a flexible community lounge that can accommodate them was required. This project called for the proposal of co-working space with a kitchen, which is possible because the area is located on the food and beverage floor, and the creation of a community lounge that can be used by local people as well as workers, and the creation of opportunities for communication and flexibility of the space. [Solution] All the main tables are equipped with casters to accommodate a variety of situations. In addition, to make it comfortable to work and eat, a variety of seating options are available to choose from depending on the purpose and mood, such as box-shaped seats for individual work, a sofa area for a short break, and a high counter for casual conversation over a cup of coffee. In order to convey that it is a place for connecting with the local community, we commissioned FACE, a globally active artist from Toshima Ward, to create a work with the themes of "diversity" and "the city of Ikebukuro," and boldly laid it out on the glass surface of the space. By dispelling the image of Sunshine City up to now in a good way, it expresses that it is a place to take a step forward and embrace new values. <Our project members> [Sales/Project Management] Minami Hiramatsu [design, layout] Manabu Yamanobe, Noriaki Tamura, Kan Fujimura [Production/ construction] Takashi Kodama
