【 Background 】

We undertook the exterior wall and entrance renovation for a construction company that actively embraces IT and the latest building technologies.

In refreshing the company’s exterior appearance, we drew inspiration from the company’s core strength in system construction — a method widely applied in factories and warehouses. Folded metal sheeting was chosen as the primary accent, owing to its nature as a reusable industrial product.

The folded metal sheeting was specified in several variations with differing perforation ratios. Combined with back-lighting, this design consideration allows the facade to harmonize gracefully with the surrounding environment while maintaining a soft and welcoming quality.

The color scheme was curated to feature the company’s brand colors as an accent, while allowing the overall metallic texture of the materials to take center stage. The entrance interior was kept clean and minimal, achieving a seamless unity with the exterior design.

【 Highlight 】

・Wall lighting that beautifully enhances the perforated folded metal sheeting — the defining accent of the exterior facade

・A tailored exterior color scheme proposal aligned with the company’s current brand identity

・Repositioning of the company logo, along with the addition of newly designed signage in a typeface that reflects the company’s modern image

・A wall storage system centered around a digital signage display for company information
