  • Daibiru Corporation Corporate Profile
    CORPORATE PROFILE 010_0361932262708.indd 2 2015/07/16 20:33:40 Corporate History Success of Daibiru indicates a new age of building construction. In 1925, two years after its foundation, Daibiru constructed “Daibiru Building,” one of the major office buildings in western Japan in expectation of future concentration of businesses in cities. In 1927, construction of “Hibiya Daibiru Building” in Hibiya, Tokyo, was completed. The eight-story “Hibiya Daibiru Building” adopted the “core system” used for skyscrapers in New York. Numerous architects were impressed by Hibiya Daibiru Building’s elegant exterior, which was the crystallization of Daibiru’s passion for urban development. With the core system, common areas of a building, such as elevators, corridors, and hot and cold water supply facilities, are located at the center of the building. Its logicality and cost efficiency contributed to the progress in building concepts and was highly regarded by the Architectural Institute of Japan. The history of the Japanese office buildings is synonymous with the history of Daibiru, an enterprise that responds to the needs of the era.
