JUNTENDO UNIVERSITY NEW RESEARCH BUILDING
JUNTENDO UNIVERSITY NEW RESEARCH BUILDING

This project is a fusion of "Juntendo's Tradition" that inherits the thoughts of pioneers who have greatly contributed to the development of Japanese medical science and "Juntendo's Innovation" that aims to realize cutting-edge educational and research facilities that open up new horizons to the world. The new laboratory serves as a world-leading innovation commons where researchers could interact, utilize laboratory equipment, and share research space to create a synergistic effect full of serendipity. It is a multi-layered open laboratory with a high degree of transparency, where there is no visual separation between clinical and basic research areas. On the front facade, the facade of the old main building, built in 1906 but destroyed by fire in the Great Kanto Earthquake, was reproduced as a symbol of Juntendo University's history. From the environmental perspective, this is the first university facility in Japan that attained both LEED-NC Platinum certification and CASBEE for Buildings Rank S certification.
