Park Court Akasaka Hinokicho The Tower

The fins are made of wood grain art aluminium in three colour schemes that make the most of the metallic feel. The angle of the fins is randomly changed to create a "wavering" effect caused by natural light. The rooftop is made of Artellion a phosphate-treated finish that resembles planting.

The design used

Processing method used

Taking advantage of the properties of aluminum, it can be processed into a variety of shapes suitable for construction.

Folding

Because the printing is done directly on the aluminium plate, the colour and pattern will stay in place even when it is bent. Unlike cut panels, no undercoat is required, which offers cost benefits.
・We recommend using 2mm thick plate material for bending.
・We recommend verifying the processing prior to mass production.
- When cutting the plate, we recommend touching up the edges with ambient-drying fluorine paint.

Cut Panels

By showing the sharp edges of the panel, it enhances the design sense and creates a luxurious feel.
・We recommend using 3mm thick sheets for the cut panels.
- If the thickness is 3mm, the marks left by the stud welding on the back side will not show on the surface.
- When cutting the plate, we recommend touching up the edges with ambient-drying fluorine paint.
