NOA building

The NOA building is a landmark 15-storey building located in Tokyo’s Azabu district. Designed by Japanese architect Seiichi Shirai, it was built in 1974.[1] The building is notable for its extensive use of brick stones and large entrance. It consists of a red-brick base of about 8 meters height and a copper sulfate shaped as an elliptical cylinder upper part with almost no windows (with only a full-length one on the 8th or 9th floor),[2] and hosts the Embassy of Fiji.[3]
