A sustainable wooden building in Ginza

Ginza is one of the most popular destinations for visitors to Japan, with a reputation for high-end shopping and cuisine. The Ginza Takagi Building, which opened in May 2023, is a new development aiming to promote a more diverse image of this historic area. This striking building uses wood as a sustainable building material, and provides a place where people can gather and communicate.

Ginza x Sustainability

The Ginza Takagi Building is a commercial complex with a focus on sustainability. With a height of around 56 meters, the building has 12 floors above ground as well as a basement level. The balcony and rooftop area provide an open space where you can soak up the atmosphere of Ginza while you dine.
The most notable feature of the Ginza Takagi Building is that the 9th to 12th floors are made of wood. The outer wall of the upper part of the building has a unique wooden design, and is made of Japanese cedar from the Tama area of Tokyo. Japan has a long tradition of using wood for buildings, which supports the recent global focus on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and promoting sustainable building practices. The Ginza Takagi Building is a place where you can feel the warmth of the people as well as the wooden architecture around you.
