Okayama Castle is one of Japan's top 100 castles, and was built by Hideie Ukita, a relative of Hideyoshi Toyotomi who served as one of the Five Elders at a young age. The three-storied, six-storied castle tower in the shape of a scalene pentagram, which is rare even in Japan, is also known as "Ujo" because of its black clapboard exterior. Following the large-scale renovation in 1996 (a project commemorating the 400th anniversary of the castle's construction), we received an order for displays renovation of the castle tower in the "Reiwa major renovation". In this renovation, with the concept of "an easy-to-understand entrance to the history of Okayama for beginners", we have developed it as a base to invite general tourists to historical tourism in Okayama City. The content of displays was supervised by Mr. Michifumi Isoda, a historian from Okayama City. It introduces in an easy-to-understand manner the attractions and characteristics of Okayama Castle, the activities of successive castle lords, and the origins of Okayama, while incorporating new knowledge.

It is also very popular as a place for effective communication. <Our project members> [Sales/Project Management] Yuya Ono [Planning/ design, layout] Keiu Tamura, Akane Yamaguchi, Junichi Ito [Signature/Graphic concept design] Akane Yamaguchi, Junichi Ito [Production/ construction] Toshiaki Hatada

"Nagasaki Kaido Seagull Market" is a bridge that conveys the culture and technology that was introduced to Nagasaki to the whole country. We are transmitting the charm of The facility development concept is “Nagasaki First”. We aim to be a place that conveys the essence of Nagasaki, connects Nagasaki with people within and outside the prefecture, and the world, revitalizes Nagasaki, and makes people naturally want to stop by every day. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] As the gateway to Nagasaki's newly reborn land, we were asked to create a space that would create new exchanges and create a lively atmosphere. [Solution] With the design concept of "Nagasaki, a city of rich waterside culture and history," we aimed to express the port that leads to overseas. The façade design uses blue and white wave-shaped tiles to express the waterfront of Nagasaki Port and the sparkling light between the waves. The interior design embodies the city of Nagasaki by making it a space that is easy to move around. But "new" has realized a space that seeks harmony between the town and people.

I feel it. <Our project members> [Sales and project management] Tadahiko Koga [Design and engineering] Hiroaki Koshizen, Yoshitaka Hirayama, Hideaki Hada, Mizuki Yamana

This is a project to improve the value of a 20-odd-year-old office building located in a corner of Kanda Ogawamachi. The main renovations will be part of the exterior façade, the building sign, the entrance on the 1st floor, and the common area on the standard floor (4th floor). By making good use of the existing space made of granite, we minimized the disposal of waste materials due to removal, and by fusing good old materials with new materials, we created a design that is highly cost-effective while being conscious of sustainability. *Biophilic design: A design or method that allows people in a space to feel a connection with nature. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] More than 20 years have passed since the building was built, and there were concerns about the obsolescence of the design of the entrance, etc., and the decline in competitiveness in the area. In addition, since the entrance of this building does not face the main street, the main flow line seems to be a back alley, and there is room for improvement in terms of visibility of the building. In light of these issues, this project was required to improve the property's competitiveness and visibility by refurbishing the entrance, facade, and some standard floors. [Solution] In order to alleviate the conventional feeling of a dark back alley, the façade has newly installed dynamic wood-grain louvers and indirect lighting to create a bright building face. The interior of the entrance has two expressions, glass and natural wood, with the aim of renewing the old-fashioned look and increasing the motivation of the people working there. Sanitary equipment such as toilets and hot water supply rooms on the office floor has also been renewed to meet new standards such as antibacterial. Through these comprehensive renovations, we aim to make the entire building a safe place for the people who work there. [Customer's voice] All of NOMURA's sales, designers, and construction staff worked together on this project, and we were able to successfully complete the project. I would like to express my gratitude for your meticulous follow-up in each phase. We feel that the façade and entrance after renovation are fully functioning as the face of the new building. <Our project members> [Development] Takuya Kitai [Sales and project management] Masahiro Harada, Kayu Tatsumi [Investigation] Wataru Takada [Design and engineering] Hiroyuki Second, Ayaka Miyane, Hitoki Igarashi [Production and construction] Mai Sakai, Tomokuni Hasegawa, Ikuya Sasaki

Expansion of solutions for Panasonic's air conditioning products centered on three themes: "air quality issues in non-residential spaces," "places for co-creation with business partners," and "experiencing the latest prototypes that control seven air quality elements." This is a purpose-built experimental facility. Through co-creation and development, we are promoting solutions that meet the needs of our customers by actually experiencing the "wind" through this place. As an air quality air conditioning solution, we have group worksheets, meeting spaces, and private booths so that you can feel the wind according to various locations, making it possible to experience the “wind” for each situation. The purpose of this facility is to promote co-creation and lead to the practice of a human-centered product development process. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] In order to expand the range of air quality air conditioning solutions, we received requests for creating a space to more attractively convey the excellent features of the latest products. [Solution] Taking advantage of the glass façade that lets in the natural light, we constructed the space using materials that give the impression of natural elements such as wood grain and stone grain, and created a space that feels more comfortable when the “wind” that is the solution overlaps. I aimed. We have devised ways to appeal the effectiveness of "wind" as one of the interior components. In addition, the layout and zoning of the air quality air conditioning solutions incorporated in each booth and area have been carefully considered so that it can be used not only as an exhibition, but also as an actual meeting or work space. [Customer's voice] By proposing a well-balanced material that makes us feel natural elements such as wood grain and stone grain, when we planted trees, the plants blended into the space and harmonized with the wind to promote well-being. ) has been realized. In addition, when I actually used it as an employee, I was able to get a real sense of the comfortable and easy-to-spend layout. <Our project members> [Sales and project management] NOMURA Media: Hikaru Sato [Design and engineering] Hiroaki Mori [Production and construction] NOMURA Media: Toshiaki Kawabata, Kazuhiro Sano

Japan's first permanent museum dedicated to infectious diseases. With the theme of "connecting the past and present of infectious diseases to the future," this facility conveys the knowledge and experience that humans have built up from the past to the present, as well as the progress toward the future. The pandemic caused by the new coronavirus infection has become an event that evokes memories of human struggles against infectious diseases, and it is expected that infectious diseases will continue to pose a threat to us in the future. Under such circumstances, the Hideyo Noguchi Memorial Museum of Infectious Diseases aims to be a place where people can acquire "correct actions based on correct knowledge" against infectious diseases. The existing facility, which is an annex of the Hideyo Noguchi Memorial Museum, has been refurbished, and the Hideyo Noguchi Memorial Foundation's track record and the high level of expertise of its supervisors have been utilized to differentiate the museum from the museum's two exhibition rooms. We have consistently promoted from architectural renovation to display design construction, sign content leaflet design. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] The Hideyo Noguchi Memorial Museum of Infectious Diseases has been working since 2021 in the midst of a pandemic. Taking this as an opportunity for all visitors to realize that infectious diseases are by no means a thing of the past during the COVID-19 crisis, we will urgently take steps to accurately understand what has happened from the past to the present and broadly communicate the steps toward the future. It was hoped that it would open in In addition, we will contribute to the public by accurately communicating the latest medical findings, including those related to the novel coronavirus infection. [Solution] In order to express highly specialized information in an easy-to-understand manner, we will incorporate the knowledge of the founding chairman of the National Institute of Infectious Diseases and the chairman of the board of directors, and discuss comprehensively through close cooperation. It was realized by planning. <Our project members> [Development] Akira Kato [Sales and project management] Takuto Yoshida [Planning and consulting] Mima Inagaki, Keiko Watanabe [Architectural renovation design] NAU: Nana Osano, Sakae Kirioka [Design and design] Shunsuke Shimizu [ Video design] CIC: Hideki Tomita [Modeling design] CIC: Nobuyuki Endo [Production and construction] Dai Shimizu

This is a head office renovation project for the 70th anniversary of the founding of Nice Co., Ltd., which distributes lumber and building materials. Our company was selected as a result of the proposal competition. With the concept of “knowing trees and passing on trees”, we will build a base where “wood” specialists gather and create a sustainable circulation centered on trees, which will in turn revitalize the distribution of trees. We aimed to be a facility that contributes to the creation of a bright society with trees. The 1st and 2nd floors, where visitors are welcomed, and the 8th floor, where the reception room is located, are designed to appeal to customers, and were designed using original wood products from Nice. In the lobby, the dynamic wooden colonnade that extends to the high ceiling and the lace material vertical blinds attached to the large glass windows gently block the line of sight from the outside world. It is a space of hospitality that makes the most of it. On the 7th floor, where employees gather, we have set up a meeting room and a book reading corner so that employees can enjoy and voluntarily face "trees", making it a craftsman's place where technology can be gathered and browsed. By creating a space where people can concentrate and a space where communication can be active, we have created a flexible space configuration that is close to the work styles of each employee. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] The specifics of this renovation are the sharing of values and designs that symbolize sustainability, such as "decarbonization and use of wood," and the development of an office environment that realizes improved communication during the COVID-19 crisis. It was a great request. [Solution] In order to realize the strong desire to use wood, we communicated closely with the person in charge of the project at Nice and the person in charge of our own factory, and let them proceed with the design while deciding on the material and color of the wood. Thank you. The communication area for employees has a spatial structure that intentionally does not create boundaries, and the area is softly partitioned with fixtures such as family restaurant benches and solo desks where you can concentrate on your work, centered on an R-shaped bookshelf. By making it an OA floor, we gave it a function that enables flexible work styles. [Customer's voice] With NOMURA Co., Ltd. in charge, we were able to create a high-quality, calm hotel lobby-like hospitality space that we would never have thought of on our own. This time, various in-house products and tree species were used as materials. In a place that could have given an inconsistent impression, you have achieved a woody renovation that is appropriate for your company, with its roots in wood, by exquisitely harmonizing the features of the tree species and the space. We are grateful to NOMURA Kogeisha for their high design and technical capabilities. <Our project members> [Development] Takuya Kitai [Sales and project promotion] Takuya Kitai, Midori Nakayabu, Seishun Yoshii [Design and design] Sachiko Tsujihichi, Nao Hiura [Production and construction] Ryowa Hirowatari, Nozomu Iwashita, Kikuchi Nohara

“Funeral Hall Close to the Community” This is a funeral hall in Mitaka City, Tokyo by Memoried Co., Ltd., which develops life support services such as ceremonial occasions. We were in charge of the entire project, from interiors to interior design, layout construction. It is a facility that performs a complete funeral service consisting of two halls, a purification hall, a mortuary room, a hot water bath room, a waiting room, and a coffin and parking space. The concept of "a funerary hall that resonates with the city," "a mansion-like appearance using textured finishes," and "a space that continues from the outside to the inside" is designed to create a pleasant living environment with abundant greenery in the surrounding area. We designed a space structure that blends in with the surrounding environment by accepting the area, nature and light through the pilotis and openings, while providing a green area on the low floor. In addition, the space is connected from the piloti to the entrance on the first floor, and from the stairs to the foyer on the second floor, and by drawing light from the second floor into the first floor, we have created a structure in which the exterior space continues to the interior. interiors and FF&E are based on the concept design of "an organic space that envelops the precious time spent with the deceased". At the same time, we aimed to create a funeral hall that is close to the community in both hardware and software, while complying with Mitaka City's regulations and local explanations. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] As a funeral hall in a residential area, we were asked to be considerate of the neighborhood in terms of both hardware and software. Recently, it is rare to hold a wake and a funeral ceremony over two days, and one-day funerals and family funerals are the mainstream. There was a request for a space concept design that can accommodate a short time and a small number of people. [Solution] In consideration of the neighborhood, the feeling of oppression was reduced by setting back* from the road and providing a green space on a low-rise building. concept design to blend in with the surrounding environment, which is a residential area, while minimizing the The piloti on the first floor is a space that is softly separated by greening with wires and louvers to block the line of sight. By creating a space where you can feel the activities of the facility and feel free to enter during events, etc., we planned it as a facility that will be recognized and understood by local residents. At the same time, we aimed to create a “funeral hall that is close to the community” in both hardware and software, while complying with Mitaka City regulations and local explanations. As for the space concept design for a short time and a small number of people, we used an organic interiors and FF&E to create a calm and gentle space, so as not to create a space that emphasizes functionality and lacks warmth. *: Setback is to secure a certain distance from the boundary line of the land and build a building <Our project members> [Sales and project design, layout] Hironari Sakimoto Wataru Sugimoto, Akane Watanabe / Kei Matsuzawa [Signature] Tomomi Ito [Production and construction] Keita Ide, Ryota Sakurai

The long-loved Chinese restaurant "Kokutai Hotel" is a tenant of the "Kyobashi Dai-ichi Seimei Building" in Chuo-ku, Tokyo. Due to the rebuilding of the building, it was relocated to the next building "Kyobashi Souseikan" across the intersection and reopened. Facing the Kyobashi crossing and being in a good location right next to Kyobashi Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, it is highly recognizable, and is a Chinese restaurant that has remained popular with locals for both daily use and customer service. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] Since the existing store will be relocated due to the rebuilding of the building, we will follow the layout regarding the number of private rooms and the number of seats for the convenience of the kitchen and the high demand for banquets as a store. I received a request to do so. [Solution] While referring to the layout of the existing store, we made a layout plan that matches the new store section and responded to requests while making improvements to usability. In addition, in response to the relocation from a store that had only the entrance facing the road to a roadside store with glass facing the road on two sides, the Chinese lattice was effectively used so that it could be recognized as a Chinese restaurant at a glance. In addition to recognizing more customers, we have improved the visibility of the store and made it an easy-to-enter design. In addition, regarding the privacy of the private rooms, the lattice doors are effectively used to solve the conflicting objectives of visibility and privacy from the outside. <Our project members> [Sales and project management] Haruyasu Niinuma, Keisuke Ogata, Hidehiko Sugihara [Design and engineering] Toshiyuki Taya [Production and construction] Miyuki Nakamura, Shota Jizaki

This is a plan for an urban tourist hotel set in Susukino, Sapporo. Susukino, a downtown area that represents Sapporo, is filled with the charm of "food" from all over Hokkaido, overflowing with delicious happiness, and aimed to create a lobby space that stimulates your appetite. We created a space and experience with motifs related to food, such as a signboard wall of a fictitious store with the motif of the Susukino entertainment district, and a neighborhood map that imitates a wooden box for shipping seafood.

The approximately 1.2km runway remains in Uzurano-cho, Kasai City, belonged to an airfield that was built during the war. Kasai City's regional revitalization base facility "sora kasai" plays a role as an exchange base for tours of these ruins, and the "quail museum" is the center of the field museum that conveys the historical facts of the war. was given. The basic plan for the facility was made by a joint venture of three companies, with displays Co., Ltd. and Iruka Sekkei Group Co., Ltd. being involved in the design. After that, I received an order for displays production independently, and the period from planning to completion was about 6 years. Towards the completion, after going through a review committee, Kasai City, local war historians who have been researching for many years, the preservation society, supervising teachers, a full-scale airplane model production company, and many other people. I made it. This museum, which is built on the runway, introduces the short but rich history of Uzurano Airfield, centering on displays of two full-scale airplane models that are deeply related to this area. We aimed to create a museum that is unique to Uzurano, making the most of the story and location of this area. It is the mission of this museum to weave together the memories of this land, leave them in a form, and pass them on to future generations. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] The challenge was to create an attractive facility that would serve as a hub for field exchanges suitable for the Kasai City Regional Revitalization Facility. In particular, the role of the museum, which has displays function, was to make it a place to think about peace by mainly displays two full-scale airplane models, as well as historical displays related to Uzurano Airfield and Kasai City. As for displays method, the emphasis was placed on the content, and the request was to mainly use video technology, but on the other hand, it was also desired displays actual materials. [Solution] The greatest attraction of this museum is that displays space is set up on the runway itself, which is a living witness of history, and the two full-scale airplane models that are the main displays are placed above it. The ``Shiden Kai'', which was assembled and tested, was placed on the runway, and the ``Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft'', which flew off to the special attack, was arranged to fly from the runway to the sky, and the runway, sky, architecture, In a powerful space where displays is integrated, it is displays unique to Uzurano that makes use of the story of this place and itself. displays consists of two zones, "Technology" and "History", and the spaces are inextricably linked through lattice walls. By approaching the historical fact of war from two perspectives, the aim is to provide an opportunity to think from multiple perspectives. For the video displays, we planned to create a synergistic effect for understanding by combining it with the material displays. In particular, the "Story Wall" consists of four stories about the history of Uzurano Airfield, and is developed as a series of four images that make use of the oblong space. In addition, four materials linked to those stories displays, and each of them complemented each other. By learning the background of the materials through the images and adding reality to the images through the materials, we aim to create displays that are more deeply conveyed. In addition, by directly incorporating the words of the people who lived here in the content, we made the war not only a past event, but also an expression that you can feel. <Our project members> [Development] Koichi Morimoto [Sales and project management] Koichi Morimoto [Planning] Settsuko Nishimura [design, layout] Tomoyo Tsukiyama [Production and construction] Takeshi Suesaki / CIC: Yu Oishi, Satoko Hasegawa
