Kumamoto Castle Tower

Kumamoto Castle Tower

The Kumamoto Earthquake in April 2016 also damaged the castle tower of Kumamoto Castle. In response to people's longing for the symbolic castle tower to return to its original form, the city of Kumamoto set a policy of early restoration of the tower. The building was completed in March 2021 with the latest earthquake-resistant technology. It carries on the wishes of the people who repaired the castle after repeated disasters over the 400 years since its construction, and contains messages from the people of Kumamoto living in the present for the next 100 to 400 years. displays organized the theme from the basement to the top floor in chronological order to create a corresponding space concept design, and created an easy-to-understand and impressive space using models, images, and wall concept design. It focuses on the castle tower, not the castle as a whole, and conveys the history of the castle construction, its architectural design, its defensive function, the castle and town development, and the thoughts and history of the people who restored the castle after every disaster. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] ・ Disseminate the historical, architectural and spiritual significance of the keep, which is a symbol of recovery from the Kumamoto Earthquake. In addition, it should be reported that Kumamoto Castle, which has historically suffered from numerous natural disasters, was revived by the recent earthquake. ・ Focus not on the whole of Kumamoto Castle, but on the "Kumamoto Castle keep," and try to share roles, collaborate and complement displays contents of the surrounding facilities. ・ Since there are many restrictions on the preservation environment in the castle tower, basically displays of actual materials should not be done, and the history displays of the keep of Kumamoto Castle after the Seinan War should be added, which was not done before. ・ From the perspective of Universal concept design, we will introduce touch displays and multilingual voice guides so that a wide range of people can enjoy displays. I received the above request. [Solution] With the castle tower as the main character, we organized the story along the timeline from the castle's construction to the present, and set a theme for each time period on each floor. The story is arranged so that you can follow the period from the lower floor to the upper floor. The first floor is the period of Kiyomasa Kato, who built the castle, the Hosokawa period, who became the lord of the domain after that, the modern period, which experienced a complete fire and reconstruction, and the present day, when the Kumamoto earthquake and recovery efforts were made.In addition to the building of the castle tower, we focused on the strong will of the people who repaired it every time after repeated disasters since the Edo period to convey the "I want to restore Kumamoto Castle and pass it on to future generations." Furthermore, to cater to a wide range of visitors, multilingual audio guides and palpable models of the keep were planned and realized. [Customer Comments] displays has been well received by visitors for its easy-to-understand and engaging methods, including explanations using models and projection mapping, and multilingual audio guides using the title sign app. < our company Project Members > 【 Development 】 Masashiro Yokoyama 【 Sales/Project Management 】 Masashiro Yokoyama, Haruka Amano, Annin Sawada 【 design, layout 】 Mitsuyo Ashida, Yuichiro Tsutsumi, Toshie Makigara, Nanako Wajun, Yoichi Honda, Naoya Fujiwara 【 Shape 】 Nobuyuki Endo 【 Production/construction 】 Takashi Ikegaya, Yoshikazu Kimura

Kasai City regional revitalization base facility “sora Kasai” Uzurano Museum

Kasai City regional revitalization base facility “sora Kasai” Uzurano Museum

The remains of the approximately 1.2 km runway in Uzurano-cho, Kasai City, were from an airfield built during the war, and many other war ruins are scattered around the area, remaining to this day. Kasai City's regional revitalization center facility, "Sora Kasai," serves as an exchange hub for touring these ruins, and the "Uzurano Museum" within it was built as the center of a field museum that conveys the historical facts of the war. The basic plan for the facility was awarded to a joint venture of the three companies, Ooba Co., Ltd., and Iruka Design Group Co., Ltd., who were involved in the design, and our company was mainly in charge of the museum displays. After that, we were independently awarded the order to create displays, and it took about six years from planning to completion. Towards completion, after going through a review committee, we worked with many people, including Kasai City, local war history researchers who had been conducting research for many years, preservation societies, supervisory teachers, and a full-scale airplane model production company, to create the facility. This museum, built on the runway, introduces the short but rich history of Uzurano Airfield, with two full-scale airplane models that are deeply connected to the area as displays. We aimed to create a museum unique to Uzurano, taking advantage of the story and local characteristics of the area. The mission of this museum is to weave the memories of this area, leave them in a tangible form, and pass them on, and we hope that it will become a place where people can think about peace and connect with each other.

In the center of the spacious space, there is also a base camp corner where parents with children of different ages can have a panoramic view of the whole area. [Social Issues / Customer Issues / Requests] The request was to create a space for parents and children that goes one step further than the achievements of LaLaport Hiratsuka, so that people with children in Numazu City and Shizuoka Prefecture can have a relaxing day as well as shopping. [Solution] We planned and concept design the space with the intention of creating a space where childcare could be shared regardless of gender or age, rather than just for mothers to look after their children. In addition to creating an extraordinary concept design that would make it enjoyable for both adults and children to come here, we also took care to ensure that families with children of different ages could find a place for siblings and ensure their safety while looking after the baby. <Our project members> [Sales] Ikuta Hidefumi, Mitsui Hiroshi [Planning] Team M: Matsumoto Mari, Nishimoto Aya [Design] Matsuzawa Kei [construction] Yamada Yusuke

The "World Heritage Mt.

Fuji, which is usually unseen, from a dynamic viewpoint, and to make people want to visit the site. Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] Since its completion in 2016, displays has been lacking in materials and explanatory text for international visitors due to the fact that it is an interactive displays experience. SOLUTION: displays graphics were re-laid out to be easier to understand, explanatory text added missing information, and a gentle route was shown by placing panels in consideration of the displays route. displays In the guide system, all existing applications were converted to web browsers, and multilingual support was provided so that visitors with different cultural backgrounds can easily understand the explanations. In addition, 3D maps and 360-degree still image content were used to enhance the experience. In terms of operation, a simple-to-use CMS (content management system) was built, making it possible to easily respond to any modifications to the explanatory text. For the VR production, we used content that traces the path of the Fuji faith in VR, and adopted a simultaneous playback system that takes into account the realistic images shot by a drone and the operational aspects. <Sales and project management] Maria Uemura [Digital contents planning] Hiroki Mima, Aya Watanabe, Ayaki Kanehara, Sakaki Miyahara, Minori Hayashi [design, layout] Kaoru Akazawa [Production: construction] Akinobu Takahashi [System design: construction] Ayaki Kanehara, Minori Hayashi - Related Links - [NOMLAB] ・山梨県立富士山世界遺産センター Fuji World Heritage Center
