Hakone Sengokuhara Prince Hotel (formerly Hotel Daihakone) has undergone its first renovation since its opening in 1992. concept design concept is "relaxation x sparkle x intelligence." The hotel interior, concept design with a motif of "Hakone marquetry," features a luxurious restaurant, an open-air bath where you can experience the majestic nature, and two guest room buildings themed on "kodachi = the impression of the beautiful trees of Mt. Hakone" and "Hikari = the angelica blooming on the plateau and the shining Japanese pampas grass of Sengokuhara," creating a space where you can feel nature and intelligence. In this project, which transformed the hotel into a modern hot spring resort that is in harmony with nature and is one of a kind in Hakone, one of Japan's leading hot spring areas, we assisted with the basic concept design, layout, planning, production, and construction.

This project was planned in an area lined with restaurants on Shirokane Platinum Street. The intention was to create a building that would evoke memories, with a new yet comfortable presence and the appearance of having been there for a long time, on a 35m-wide site. Our company assisted with schematic design and design supervision of this building, which aimed to become a landmark of the city as a complex dining facility. Since the building required a sense of openness, we used cement broken stones to create a sense of openness and shielding, and a texture that looks as if it has been eroded by wind and light. This also contributes to creating the atmosphere of "dry land in the south," which is concept design keyword for the interior. Based on a consistent concept, we assisted with everything from interiors concept design to the selection of plants and artwork in order to realize a unified interior that allows you to feel the wind and light flowing in from outside, as well as greenery and water. When viewed from the outside, interiors concept design that continues to the terrace, combined with the planting plan, becomes one of the elements that decorate the façade, and the architectural façade becomes a borrowed view from the interior space, and the space is created by the interior and exterior complementing each other. The facility has a dining room, a teppanyaki restaurant, two banquet halls, and a chapel, and all kitchens are walk-in or open kitchens. The front room of the chapel and the bucket hall is separated by glass, and emphasis is placed on the visibility and continuity of the space within the facility. In addition to being open to the street, the expressions created by the materials that have already aged create an atmosphere that seems to have existed for a long time, making it a distinctive landmark and building an intimate relationship with the town. ◎Our group project members [Sales] Takenaka Hisayasu, Kitai Takuya [Direction] Kosaka Ryu [design, layout] Architecture: Iizumi Hiroyuki Interior: Saito Reiko, Hisakane Masahiro [Production and construction] Idei Keiji

The veil of the spired arch structure, which is made by hand weaving steel pipes one by one, is the result of meticulous structural calculations, mock-up testing, and the skill and labor of human "manufacturing."

[Project] ORIENTAL HOTEL, one of Japan's oldest hotels, was established in 1870. In March 2010, 15 years after the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, it began to make a new history as a symbol of the city's recovery. Throughout the entire building, while valuing the texture of the materials of stone and wood, we have added an oriental essence to the details to create a calm, high-quality feel and a new uniqueness.

As a facility that plays a central role in the redevelopment project in front of Shizuoka Station, the theme of the upper floors is Euro-Modern, while the theme of the middle floors is Orient-Modern, with 2 chapels and 14 banquet spaces. From the sky chapel on the 25th floor to the large banquet hall on the 4th floor with a ceiling height of more than 6m, we have designed a facility that takes advantage of the architectural characteristics of each and completed a facility that can provide a wealth of options.

[Project Summary] Takashimaya Osaka is a modern building with high historical value, decorated with Corinthian wall columns and arches, located at the end of Midosuji. "Namba Dining Maison" is a three-story dining zone from the 7th to 9th floors, spanning the expansion and the existing building, and was required to have a "high quality and class" appropriate for Takashimaya, as well as a "lively and energetic" atmosphere typical of Osaka. By sprinkling the "memories of modern architecture" throughout the interior space, we aimed to create a space that evokes the feeling that visitors are in a building with high historical value. We concept design the original pattern based on the details of the exterior of the building built in the early Showa period in a modern style, and continued it to evoke a Western patio in the atrium on the three floors and in front of the store facade, and further deployed the details of the exterior of the building in various parts of the environment to create a sense of unity across the three floors with different scenes.
