Mint Kobe

In 2006, 11 years after it was completely destroyed in the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake in 1995, it was rebuilt as Mint Kobe, a complex commercial building with various urban functions such as a bus terminal, cinema, cultural center, and offices. In 2018, in order to create the future of Kobe's city center, we replaced most of the shops and completely renewed the commercial environment. concept design concept was ``M-INT MUSEUM'', expressing the unique lifestyle of ``Kobe-ness'', which is cultivated by the city, scenery, and enterprising culture, where each person cherishes and enjoys their daily lives. The glittering elevator hall concept design and the open atrium space with two faces are decorated with wrought iron, art objects, and carefully selected furniture, integrating the ``M'' that symbolizes the characteristics of Mint Kobe. We participated in the project from the business concept stage and were in charge of all the work in the renewal project, including planning, consulting, tenant leasing, concept design planning, construction, and furniture and fixture manufacturing.
