Embraced in Recycled Steel

by Nobuaki Miyashita for Kyoei Steel Ltd.

This office interior reimagines Kyoei Steel's recycled materials, including angle steel, rebars, and flat bars, as an architectural statement. Typically concealed structural elements become aesthetic focal points, emphasizing material strength and texture. Barcode and QR code motifs extend across the space, reinforcing the company's identity. Lighting highlights these patterns, creating a dynamic interplay between recycled steel, technology, and light. The design showcases the potential of repurposed materials while reflecting the fusion of industrial heritage and modern innovation.
