Shizuoka Press and Broadcasting Center, Metabolist office building in Ginza, Japan.

The Shizuoka Press and Broadcasting Center features thirteen office modules arranged around a central cylindrical core with a diameter of 7.7 meters.

Architect Kenzo Tange completed this structure in 1967 as the first physical manifestation of the post-war Japanese Metabolist architectural movement.

The building represents Japanese architectural innovation through its modular design concept, reflecting the rapid economic growth and urban development of 1960s Tokyo.

Located near Shimbashi Station, the structure occupies a triangular plot of 189 square meters and rises to a height of 57 meters.

The central column contains essential facilities while cantilevered glass and steel office boxes extend outward, creating spaces between units for potential future expansion.
