Mitsubishi Pavilion (Expo 2025) / Mitsubishi Jisho Design

A "Mother Ship" Hovering Just Above the Ground. – The theme of the Mitsubishi Group pavilion for Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai—"keeping the world vibrant"—is reflected in the core design concept of life, nature, and human society as interconnected and interacting elements. The pavilion consists of a belowground level and two aboveground levels of layered geometries, beginning with a semi-underground elliptical space. Overlapping this space is a rhombus whose vertices touch the interior curve of the oval. A rectangle similarly laid out within the rhombus provides an additional layer for the structure. Each of these three geometric forms symbolizes a different element—the ellipse, life; the rhombus, nature; and the rectangle, society—while the architecture expresses their mutually supportive relationship. The pavilion has no single front-facing façade; rather, the all-directional design is meant to be visually engaging from both the main plaza on the east gate side as well as the peripheral roads on the opposite side.

Located directly north of Tokyo Station, one of Japan’s largest railway hubs, the Tokyo Torch redevelopment district is envisioned as a light of hope illuminating Japan. The district sits within a National Strategic Special Zone, intended to strengthen Japan’s international economic competitiveness, and will be a new center of finance and business. It will include Torch Tower, projected to be Japan’s tallest building at 390 meters when completed in FY2027; Tokiwabashi Tower; an Electrical Substation Building; a Sewerage & Waterworks Bureau Building; Tokyo Torch Park; and Tokiwabashi Park. Four existing dilapidated buildings are being demolished and replaced in stages in conjunction with the renewal of urban infrastructure including electrical and water facilities. Tokiwabashi Tower, a 38-story, 212-meter-high mixed-use building, is the first element of the project to be completed.

A learning space for the Internet age - Located in the leafy city of Ibaraki in northern Osaka Prefecture, this project forms the core of the Ibaraki Smart Community, which occupies the 185,000 m² site of a former Toshiba factory. The 40,000 m² facility will serve as a new campus for about 3,600 students at Otemon Gakuin University, or about half the student population. As Internet technology, artificial intelligence, and mobility improve and students no longer need to be on campus to attend school, what form will universities take?

The Xinyi district of Taipei, where the building site is located, is a cosmopolitan tourism area that symbolizes the city as a whole. Based on a new urban plan drawn up by the government that encourages cityscape-conscious development, the area has grown into a business center with a range of amenities including shopping, arts facilities, and international exhibition spaces. The building stands on the former grounds of a trade center adjacent to Taipei 101, the tallest building in Taiwan, on the southern edge of Xinyi. Mitsubishi Jisho Sekkei won a government-led development competition to partner on the project with Nanshan Life Insurance, which has a fifty-year lease from the government and planned to construct an office and high-end shopping complex to re-energize the district.
