Nissan Advanced Technology Center
Nissan Advanced Technology Development Center breaks with traditional ideas of what a research & development office should be and presents the innovative "Stepped Work Place" concept.
The Stepped Work Place roofed in glass is full of natural incentives to invigorate the mind and promote creative thinking, with spaces to encourage the informal communications that are so important to research and development.
Seismic isolation structure, sunlight blinds integrated into the roof glazing, floor diffuser A/C system for the efficient climate control of the multilevel spaces, cool heat pit, light catalytic roof washing system and solar chimneys are key technological advances that make this open architecture possible.
