Among her most recognized achievements is the GSK Japan headquarters, which received both the Creative Office Award and New Office Promotion Award at the 31st Nikkei New Office Awards. The project was also selected as a filming location for a nationally broadcast television drama.

Yoshiko is known for her integrity, clarity, and deep commitment to translating each client’s vision into spaces that perform—visually, functionally, and culturally.
