The facility is located in the natural beauty of Ashizuri-Uwakai National Park. Although it offers a spectacular view, the hotel's old interiors remains as it was, as if time had stopped since the Showa era. Initially, the plan was to set up a small cafe area, but as the meetings continued, ARTH's vision of wanting to liven up not only the hotel but also the entire city of Kochi and Tosashimizu expanded. The project has been transformed into a complex that includes an Italian restaurant, providing a luxurious space where you can experience the nature of Ashizuri.

In the past, nursing care facilities focused on the maintenance of equipment, but we recognized that interiors concept design was also important to increase the value of the facility and further improve our services, so we created a facility that aims to "combine functionality with concept design." The "maple" finish, which is also the name of the facility, is used throughout the facility, creating a space that feels bright and warm. In addition, we installed a lighting control system in the common areas to coordinate the entire space to support a healthy rhythm of life throughout the day spent in the nursing facility.

This facility is a fusion of a hotel and a motorsports museum, newly built on a site adjacent to Fuji Speedway, Japan's leading motorsports hub. The fusion of the charm and value of motorsports and the hospitality offered by the Hyatt brand provides a one-of-a-kind experience. The design work transcends the boundaries between interiors (hotel interior) and displays (museum), and treats everything in the space as a medium to convey the charm and value of motorsports. The concept design scattered throughout the facility has a message constructed from a huge amount of research and data on motorsports, making it enjoyable for both amateurs and experts. It is also the world's first museum to "displays and introduce motorsports throughout its history, transcending the boundaries of manufacturers." Rather than a descriptive displays centered on explanatory texts, we aimed to create displays that would allow visitors to intuitively grasp the value that motorsports culture has brought to society throughout history. In order to do so, we combined vehicles with historical backgrounds to create displays structure that allows visitors to walk around and get a bird's-eye view of the changes that have taken place. The main zone in particular was impressively presented with a immersive theater-style displays that included video and audio.

This project involved renovating an old folk house in the Odoi district of Izu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, into a rental accommodation facility. This area was once a quiet residential area for magistrates, and the plan sought to offer a stay that incorporates the surrounding environment, allowing guests to experience the slow flow of time. The main house features a kitchen with services such as dinner prepared by a visiting chef and alcohol served from a movable bar. For interiors, we utilized local materials, attempting to create a space using local materials, just as they were in the Edo period, such as mud walls made from local soil and dining tables made from locally grown cherry wood. [Social Issue/Customer Issue/Request] To maximize the potential of this rental old folk house, the client requested an appealing spatial concept design that took into account the characteristics of the site. [Solution] While leveraging the charm of the existing building, we incorporated a spatial configuration that maximized the surrounding views and finishes that utilized local soil. <Our project members> [Sales and project management] Hiratsuka Shinya, Yagi Nobuyuki [Overall supervision] Koito Norio [Planning] Ninomiya Saki [design, layout] Inoue Hirofumi ~Related links~ [Release] ・ NOMURA Co.,Ltd., Ltd.'s social good activities: LOQUAT Villa SUGURO case study: Creating an auberge space that is colored by the charm of the region ・Projects for which NOMURA Co.,Ltd. handled spatial concept design win numerous awards, including the silver award, at the Japan Space concept design Awards 2022 [Related achievements] ・LOQUAT Nishiizu

"A funeral hall that is close to the community" This is a funeral hall in Mitaka, Tokyo, by Memoryd Co., Ltd., which provides life support services including ceremonial occasions. We were in charge of everything from architecture to interiors design, layout construction. It is a facility for holding a full funeral ceremony, consisting of two halls, a purification hall, a mortuary room, a bathing room, a waiting room, and a space for the funeral procession and parking. In response to the green and pleasant living environment in the surrounding area, the concept was "a funeral hall that resonates with the town," "a mansion-like appearance with textured finishes," and "a welcoming space that continues from the outside to the inside." The space is low-rise and has green spaces, while the pilotis and openings welcome the local community, nature, and light, creating a spatial composition that blends in with the surrounding environment. In addition, the pilotis connects to the first floor entrance, and the stairs connects to the second floor foyer, drawing in light from the second floor to the first floor, creating a space that makes the exterior space seem continuous with the interior. interiors and FF&E were concept design with the concept of "an organic space that envelops precious time with the deceased" and with a calm and gentle impression that gently envelops the time that has been woven and accumulated. At the same time, we aimed to create a funeral hall that is close to the community, both in terms of hardware and software, while complying with Mitaka City regulations and neighborhood explanations. [Social issues / Customer issues / Requests] As it will be a funeral hall in a residential area, we were asked to consistently consider the neighborhood in both hardware and software. In addition, wakes and funerals are rarely held over two days these days, and one-day funerals and family funerals are the norm. In addition, the number of attendees is limited due to the effects of COVID-19, so we were asked to concept design a space that can accommodate a short period of time and a small number of people. [Solution] In consideration of the neighborhood, we reduced the feeling of oppression by creating a low-rise building with a setback* from the road and green spaces, and by creating an appearance like a mansion with a textured finish, we minimized the image of a funeral hall as much as possible, while creating concept design that blends in with the surrounding residential environment. The pilotis on the first floor is a space that is softly partitioned while blocking the view with wire greenery and louvers, and is not hidden by walls, but is open to the surrounding environment. The facility's activities can be felt and it is a space that can be easily entered during events, so it was planned as a facility that is recognized and understood by local residents. At the same time, we aimed to create a "funeral hall that is close to the community" in terms of both hardware and software, while complying with Mitaka City regulations and neighborhood explanations. As a space concept design for short periods of time and small numbers of people, we focused on functionality and avoided a space that lacks warmth, and created a calm and gentle space by using organic finishes for interiors and FF&E. *: Setback means that a building is built with a certain distance from the boundary line of the land. <Our project members> [Sales and project management] Hironari Sakimoto [design, layout] NAU: Yoichi Kawakami, Norio Koito, Wataru Sugimoto, Akane Watanabe / Kei Matsuzawa [Sign] Tomomi Ito [Production and construction] Keita Ide, Ryota Sakurai

"OMO5 Kyoto Sanjo" has opened on Kyoto Sanjo Street, where Kyoto is packed with fun things to see, buy, and eat. As a mechanism to fully enjoy "Kyoto Sanjo", there is a townhouse tower that conveys the history of Takasegawa and information on shops, a town walking map that allows you to enjoy two different courses along the Takasegawa and Sanjo retro town, and a walking map around Sanjo. In the lobby, we have set up content that leads to walking around Sanjo, such as an artwork with the letter "San" lined up with old maps from three different eras, and an art panel frottage of Sanjo no Michi. In addition, in the renovation of the guest room, we have created a small rise where suitcases can be stored, and have devised ways to use the space widely by consolidating the bed and sofa areas.
