At first, the activities of NAU were carried out by individual architects and architectural offices those were member of NAU design planning committee. The buildings which NAU designed were All-Japan Shipbuilding Workers Labor Union, New Japanese Literature Hall and The Federation of Bank Employees Labor Unions.
