Whether city halls, prefectural offices, or town halls, we create counters and offices for all types of government institutions,
supported by extensive data, knowledge, and a keen sensitivity to express the charm of the region.
ITOKI’s approach to constructing Municipal office buildings carefully considers the perspectives of both users and workers.
We leverage our extensive expertise to create spaces that capture the essence of the city’s charm.
How should we proceed when building, relocating, or renovating local government buildings?
As a reliable partner, ITOKI provides full support from the concept stage.
A major characteristic of municipal office buildings is that they are not only places to work and use, but also symbols of the community.
When building or renovating a new government building, many people may wonder how to conceptualize and proceed to give shape to the city's charm. ITOKI combines a wealth of knowledge with a deep sensibility to express the charm of the region, providing full support as a strong and reliable partner.
Creating a space that is friendly to both visitors and workers.
We provide know-how to achieve this from a wide range of perspectives.
In addition to fully equipping municipal office buildings with the necessary functions, our goal is to create spaces that are welcoming to everyone. That is the role of ITOKI, a "professional in government building design." Utilizing the vast amount of know-how we have accumulated over many years, we will create a warm, easy-to-understand and easy-to-use space for both visitors and workers.
Counter
Based on current data, such as the number of visitors, we will verify and design the optimal counters. We will also install counter furniture in the best way to ensure a smooth flow of traffic.
Sign
Clear and easy-to-understand signs are crucial for ensuring that users reach their destination without getting lost. We create a space with a sophisticated impression while ensuring that all displays are clearly visible.
Lobby
The lobby of a local government building welcomes a diverse array of visitors every day. As a space that represents the local government, we carefully design it with intuitive navigation and functionality, ensuring that it is comfortable for everyone.
Office Space
We investigate and analyze the nature of your employees' work and the functions they require, then propose the optimal setup. Our goal is to create an office space where they can work comfortably and with energy.
Leave your relocation or new construction to us.
When the need to relocate or build a new government building arises, perhaps because of the aging of the current facility, it can be challenging to know where to begin. In such situations, you can rely on ITOKI, which has a rich track record.
We provide comprehensive support, from investigating and analyzing the current situation to managing the relocation process while ensuring business continuity, as well as overseeing overall project management. This strong guidance will help realize new ways of working in the new government building.

The process of building municipal office buildings
We provide comprehensive support at every stage, from assessing the current state of the government building, including how it is being used, the volume of documents, and necessary functional requirements, to creating the layout for the new building and planning the relocation process. Our goal is to lighten the load for those in charge and assist with various management tasks.
- Current status survey
- We thoroughly investigate the current situation both quantitatively and qualitatively, examining aspects such as the layout of the existing government building, how each area is used, the volume of documentation, and the necessary functions.
- Analysis
and Requirement definition - We deeply analyze the information obtained from the survey. For example, we assess the status of each service counter's operations to determine the "ideal state," such as where counters should be located and how many are needed. This analysis helps define the requirements that will guide the subsequent project stages.
- Layout
and Fixture plan creation - We create a layout to realize the derived "ideal image" and proceed with planning the fixtures. We design and implement a layout that maximizes the necessary functions for each area, such as counters, consultation rooms, and office spaces.
- Creating a relocation plan
- We will carefully determine the best approach for proceeding with the relocation while continuing current operations. The plan is developed with careful attention to ensuring that the process can move forward without causing any disruptions for users or staff, and that coordination with all related parties is seamless.
