Kokuyo has designed the interiors of Culture Hub for Mercari in Tokyo, Japan.

Culture Hub is the new Tokyo headquarters for Mercari, Japan's leading C2C marketplace app.

In the hybrid work era, this project redefines the office not as a mandatory workspace, but as a dynamic incubator for corporate culture.

Spatialising the brand's core concept of "circulating value", the design extensively upcycles waste materials and user-traded items into highly functional, everyday furniture and fixtures.

By minimising physical and cognitive friction, this fluid spatial design fosters serendipitous encounters.

Culture Hub empowers a diverse global team to collaborate, innovate, and unleash their creativity within an uncompromisingly sustainable, human-centric environment.
