The image features floor plans of a typical Japanese office and a typical American office. The Japanese office consists of a rectangular layout with one "Department Manager" desk centered against a wall adjacent to a group of two "Section Manager" desks directly across; these desks face two clusters of six "clerk" desks each, totaling twelve clerk desks, arranged in two sets of three rows, with three desks per row; a small square marked "Entry" is seen in one corner, and "Windows" are positioned opposite this corner. The American office displays a rectangular floor plan segmenting distinct areas: a "Printer/Copier" space, a "Storage" area, and two "Conference Rooms" aligned vertically along one side next to a row of six equally spaced "clerk" desks lined two-by-two across from these facilities; additional features include one "Department Manager" and one "Section Manager" desks positioned parallel across from the clerks' desks, with "Windows" spanning the length of the opposite wall.

The diagrams compare the designs of typical offices in America and Japan.
Overall, it is obvious that the layout of Japanese offices promotes collective engagement and managerial supervision, with its open-plan structure. However, the American design emphasizes on individual working environment and provides each employee with privacy.
Starting with the Japanese office, the department manager’s desk is located right beside the large windows, positioned to oversee the entire workplace. In the middle of the office, we can see two special desks for section managers, leading to two parallel rows of employee desks, along with chairs. This arrangement provides an open and collective working atmosphere where interaction is the main factor between employees.
Turning to the American office, the layout shifts to a more individualized design and there are windows on both sides of the office to let more natural light in. The layout is divided into functional zones, with a printer/copier room and storage space located on the top left corner of the office. Additionally, two conference rooms can be seen located adjoining each other on the bottom.
