Osaka University of Arts' animal diorama museum, "Geidai Zoo," is the world's first university-based animal diorama museum, where students from all departments can use the museum as a teaching material for artistic expression, such as drawing animals and displays each animal in its natural habitat. Areas have also been set up to displays stuffed heads, fighting wapiti, moose, and other animals by species and region. Our company was responsible for the entire project, from design to construction, including taxidermy research and restoration, and filing applications with the Ministry of the Environment.

Kyoto-based coffee shop brand %ARABICA has opened its first roastery at U-Venues, a complex located in the heart of New Cairo, a satellite city of Cairo, Egypt. Located in North Africa, where the Nile River flows, Egypt's vast desert is dotted with ancient ruins. This unique location, where such history and culture remain strong while modern urban development is also progressing daily, and the stone quarries of the pyramids, Egypt's symbol, inspired the space's concept design, which revolves around the concept of "stacking." To express the irregular landscape of the quarry throughout the space, 800mm square modular limestone is stacked in a staircase-like pattern from the roasting room and coffee counter to the seating area, creating random traffic flow and height differences, resulting in a comfortable space with just the right amount of visibility. Furthermore, while a full-surface luminous membrane symbolically highlights the baristas, roasters, and bean bags, the seating area is illuminated only by surface illumination limited to the benches where guests linger, creating a contrasting atmosphere. Arabica's original hieroglyphics, modeled after ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, are used as interior elements on the walls of the entrance floor and niche seating, creating a space that combines traditional elements with modern expression.

Juno Park, which opened in Kizugawa City, Kyoto Prefecture, is a project to renovate Sekisui House's experiential research facility, Nattoku Kobo, into a housing education edutainment facility to cultivate children's sensibilities. The facility consists of four floors, with the first floor being a cafe and library that local residents can use casually, and the second through fourth floors being a paid experience area. Based on Sekisui House's concept of "sensitivities cultivated through daily life," we planned and developed the "Experience Activities," a 45-minute game-style group workshop linked to six themes related to "living," as well as the "Experience Gallery," displays where visitors can enjoy hands-on interaction and thinking. We also handled the operational planning, including the creation of staff scripts and facility operation manuals, and the design and construction of the facility's interiors and outdoor signage.

This project involved rebranding a 40-year-old hotel located near Kirishima Shrine at the foot of the Kirishima Mountains in Kagoshima Prefecture as "The Pulse Kirishima." The old hotel was purchased by a real estate investment fund and underwent a complete renovation. We designed the interior and concept design of the entire building, and collaborated with a local general contractor for construction, enabling the hotel to open in just one year from the start of design.

The food court on the first basement floor of Haneda Airport's Terminal 1, which connects to Keikyu Railway and Tokyo Monorail stations, has been renovated into a new food zone called "Sora Chika." Before the renovation, the area and number of seats were approximately 540 m² and 130 seats, but after the renovation, they have nearly doubled to approximately 1,000 m² and 200 seats. Based on the concept of "a moment at the beginning and end of your journey," the facility aims to be a place where everyone can relax and enjoy themselves, meeting the diverse needs of airport users, such as a hearty meal before departure, a tea break, or purchasing bento boxes and prepared foods to take on board.

This project marks the first "Real x Tech LAWSON" store, which opened within KDDI's new Head Office. The store utilizes AI and DX technologies. In addition to developing the basic concept design for the new store, our Content Integration Center (CIC) leveraged its expertise in utilizing technology to propose and produce various ideas for utilizing AI and DX technologies. The store also incorporates sustainability initiatives, such as reusing discarded uniforms worn by Lawson store staff for flooring and discarded clothing for panels. The in-store signage, linked to the "Urban OS" data platform that collects, analyzes, and utilizes various urban data, displays information on weather, train delays, congestion, and events. Other features include a "cleaning robot" that roams the store, AI cameras that display recommended products based on customer behavior (such as reaching) in front of shelves, and a "Ponta General Consultation Center" that offers solutions to everyday problems. The store is packed with new initiatives aimed at making convenience stores an integral part of the city's infrastructure.

This project involved the "Lawson S KDDI Takanawa Head Head Office Store," a cashierless experimental store opened on the employee-only floor of Head Office 's new headquarters. Our Content Integration Center (CIC) utilized its high level of expertise and experience in utilizing technology to support the system construction for the store's concept design construction. Since users are limited to KDDI employees, the "Office Lawson App" was adopted, allowing payments without waiting in line at the cash register, creating a store that provides value that leads to increased productivity for office workers. Delivery robots were also introduced, allowing for mobile sales within the office. The robots use elevators to move between floors, allowing customers to purchase products without having to stop in the store, making this a truly "testing ground for the future."

POSTUDIO, opened within New Man Takanawa, a new commercial facility directly connected to JR Takanawa Gateway Station, is a facility created by the Japan Post Group that provides experiences that will make you want to travel to various parts of Japan based on your interests.
