Mint Kobe

Eleven years after being completely destroyed in the 1995 Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, Mint Kobe was rebuilt in 2006 as a mixed-use commercial building incorporating diverse urban functions such as a bus terminal, multiplex cinema, cultural center, and offices. In 2018, in order to create the future vision for downtown Kobe, the majority of the shops were replaced, and the commercial environment underwent a complete renovation. concept design concept was "M-INT MUSEUM," expressing the unique lifestyle of "Kobe-ness," which is cultivated by the city, its landscape, and its pioneering culture, where each individual cherishes and enjoys their daily life. From concept design of the glittering elevator hall to the two-faced atrium space, wrought iron, art objects, and carefully selected furniture were arranged, integrating the "M" that symbolizes the characteristics of Mint Kobe. Our company participated in the project from the business concept stage and was in charge of all aspects of the renovation project, including planning, consulting, tenant leasing, concept design, construction, and furniture and fixture manufacturing.
