Chisei Building
In *SHIROBAKO*, the office of Musashino Animation is located in a building called the "Chisei Building." The main characters pass by the prominent vertical sign reading "知性ビル" at the entrance every day on their way to work. The building has a beige facade with several floors of glass windows, and an automatic door at the entrance leading to an interior hallway with elevators. In the opening scenes of the anime, Aoi Miyamori and her colleagues often meet in front of the building holding scripts or storyboards, or hurry back to the office after buying something at the convenience store downstairs.

Visit notes
- 该大楼原型位于东京都千代田区，实际建筑外观与动画中的描绘高度一致，甚至入口的招牌样式也被忠实还原。
- 武藏野动画公司是虚构的，但知性大楼在现实中的地址是千代田区神田神保町二丁目，附近有许多出版社和书店，符合动画设定的业界背景。
- 动画中大楼内部场景部分取自动画制作公司P.A.Works的办公楼，但外部完全参考了现实中的知性大楼。
