[Project Description] We assisted with the design and construction work for the relocation of "Sabatini di Firenze," a superb, authentic Italian restaurant that boasts a history of over 100 years in Italy and nearly 40 years in Ginza, offering the essence of Tuscan cuisine. Our concept design concept was "connecting," and we redefined the Sabatini style as "not a tradition of simply preserving old things and passing them on to future generations, but a tradition of using old things while challenging ourselves with new things and innovating." This resulted in a new "Sabatini di Firenze" that met the expectations of our loyal customers. [Customer Feedback] This is a masterpiece among all of our Cardinal's past stores. We are truly grateful. <Our Project Members> [Sales/Project Management]: Masahiro Harada [design, layout]: Kumiko Oishi / Chie Okamoto [Production/ construction]: Kentaro Yamaguchi / Katsuhiko Naito / Yoshito Hamabe / Yumiko Matsumoto

[Project Description] This is the first store outside of Hokkaido for Ishiya Confectionery Co., Ltd., a Hokkaido-based confectionery manufacturer famous for "Shiroi Koibito" (White Lover) cookies. Unlike the Shiroi Koibito brand, which can only be purchased in Hokkaido, this store is a new brand created for store expansion outside of Hokkaido that does not sell the flagship product, Shiroi Koibito, and this is its first store. Positioned as an antenna shop that takes advantage of its location in Ginza (GINZA SIX), this store will serve as a stepping stone for future store expansion. [Client's Challenges/Requests] The most important thing in terms of concept design expression is that it conveys that it is a Hokkaido-based confectionery manufacturer. The newly developed product line uses a wide variety of local ingredients to create unique products, and we felt that a message was needed that clearly expresses that the roots of its appeal lie in Hokkaido. Therefore, we proposed making an impression with a design that uses "snow" as a motif. [Solution] This white design covering the wall is a deformed and patterned snowflake that has been cut into panels. This design evokes the scenery of Hokkaido, has a pop feel that matches the atmosphere of the confectionery packaging, and also serves as a neutral background to complement the wide range of colors in this merchandising. Inside the showcase, which is the focal point, a small stage was installed to enhance the visibility of the products, and the same cutting pattern was applied to its rising surface. This expresses the scene of confectionery displayed on freshly fallen snow, increasing its appeal to customers browsing the floor and making the products, which represent Ishiya Confectionery Co., Ltd.'s new endeavor and are imbued with thought, even more attractive. <Our Project Members> [Sales] Hyo Inoha, Tadayuki Matsubara [Design] Yoshihiro Kitamura [Production] Shigehito Katsumata, Hajime Komura

[Project Overview] Since the Meiji era, Hibiya has evolved as a place that provides a space for adults to socialize and relax, with the Rokumeikan, a social gathering place, and the Imperial Hotel, which was born as Japan's state guesthouse, standing side by side. Mitsui Fudosan, the project owner, has positioned "In the Park," "Entertainment," and "Elegance" as the unique values that Hibiya offers, and is creating a city that encourages the gathering and exchange of various cultures, sensibilities, and talents from around the world, creating new, future-oriented experiences and values. Our company was in charge of the commercial environmental design, production, and construction of the commercial floors from the basement to the 3rd floor above ground, and based on the concept of "THE PREMIUM TIME HIBIYA," we aimed to create a bright and glamorous space full of adult charm, befitting Hibiya, a sacred place for arts, culture, and entertainment, with the project owner's desire to provide visitors with a special experience in a luxurious time and space, and the concept design concept of a "theatrical space city." The three-story atrium, which is inspired by traditional theater spaces, is an elegant space with soft curves. The underground arcade inherits the memory of the city by reconstructing the "Sanshin Building," which was once a symbol of Hibiya in this area, with a modern concept design. <Our Project Members> [Sales & Project Management] Yo Nishimoto, Kazuya Chida, Shinpei Watanabe [design, layout] Yukio Kazusaka, Yusuke Matsumoto, Chikako Hatanaka [Production & construction] Keisuke Toda, Shinjiro Iwata, Yoshitaka Odajima

[Project Overview] This is a concept design project for the world's first sweets boutique by Philippe Conticini. [Client's Challenges] The client requested a high-end space concept design that reflected Mr. Conticini's philosophy, and required a café area with counter seating where sweets could be presented to customers, as well as a retail area that would showcase the products in an appealing way. [Solution] To create a store that is both upscale and approachable, we created a moderately casual atmosphere by using a bright interior and rounded elements. <Our Project Members> Direction: Ryu Kosaka design, layout: Yuji Tanaka Sales: Kazumi Wakui Production: Hajime Komura

[Project Overview] This is a store concept design project for a new original brand shop, drawing on the history of the Juchheim store that once existed in Ginza. [Client's Challenge] The client requested a store concept design that would evoke a nostalgic impression, given the store's name, Café Europe, without becoming outdated.

[Project Overview] LUMINE SINGAPORE is Lumine Co., Ltd.'s first overseas store. Targeting curious working women, it is a concept store that transmits [TOKYO STYLE, CULTURE, DESIGN] from Lumine's unique perspective. The minimalist space, composed of solid materials, creates a gallery-like world that highlights each and every featured product item. It also includes "Lumine Cafe," Lumine's first cafe format, offering a photogenic menu that is conscious of beauty and health, as well as a space that conveys femininity and style. [Client's Challenges] Lumine's self-curated apparel shop and cafe operation. As everything was a first for Lumine, our biggest challenge was to support the store's creation from scratch. The uniquely shaped 285-tsubo (approximately 970 square meters) space is comprised of more than 20 fashion brands, a cafe area, and a sub-lease area. The project required a zoning and traffic flow plan that highlighted the appeal of various merchandise items, a spatial concept design that expressed the individuality and harmony of the new Lumine brand, and an edgy space with a "TOKYO" theme unlike anything else in Singapore. In terms of implementation, challenges arose in overseas construction, such as negotiations and coordination between Lumine and the local building owner, tight schedule adjustments due to repeated delays in decision approvals, and factory production and checks in other countries for production orders. [Solution] By utilizing the irregular shape of the sections and gradually changing each area, a space with breadth and dynamism was created. In addition, by running wooden eaves along the section boundaries, a sense of unity was given to the store, which is packed with various elements (merchandise), and the launch of the new Lumine brand was emphasized. For materials, emphasis was placed on texture and authenticity, and a minimalist and edgy space was created mainly with mortar, wood, and terrazzo. During the project, collaboration with an external VMD designer was carried out to add an artistic element, expressing a sense of style and trendiness that is uniquely "Tokyo-like". In terms of execution, thanks to close cooperation with the Japanese team and the swift response of Nomura Singapore, we were able to successfully open the project despite the tight schedule. <Our Project Members> [Development] Yukihiko Nishi [Sales & Project Management] Shinpei Watanabe / Katsuhiro Muragata [design, layout] Yoko Suzuki, Chie Okamoto [Production & construction] Katsuhiro Muragata / Akihiro Yoshida / Daniel Ma

In conjunction with the expansion of the East-West Free Passage in the Sendai Station Renovation Project, we promoted environmental design in the facility for the new East Wing expansion of the Espal Sendai Store East Wing and the renovation of the existing building schematic design under design administration of JR East, which is in charge of design administration. The plan was to expand the floor space of Stellnet I T and grand open the 2nd and 3rd floors of the main building in March 2016, and to open the 1st floor of the main building in March 2017 and Stellnet II in June 2017. We assisted working drawings and construction operations for the first three floors of the main building and schematic design for Stellne.

[Project Overview] Saito Confectionery's main store was damaged in the Great East Japan Earthquake. Subsequently, in the central urban area of Ofunato, a base for reconstruction, they reopened "Sanriku Kasho Saito Main Store" as "Kamome Terrace," a flagship store with an attached confectionery workshop, with even more power. With the aim of realizing President Saito's wish to "propose a new form of 'engawa' (veranda) that values the feeling of relaxation as if you were on a veranda, as a place to welcome visitors with sweets," our company was in charge from the basic concept to construction. We assisted in the creation of a flagship store in a consistent manner, from architectural concept design and interior to interiors, video, logo mark creation, shopping bags, business cards, and other VI concept design. [Client's Challenges] 1) They want the store to be more than just a store, but a hub for community exchange and tourism. They want to create mechanisms to achieve this. 2) They want to appeal to customers with a wide range of products through branding that does not rely solely on their main product, "Kamome no Tamago" (Seagull Egg). How can we clearly and consistently zone the four brands operated by Saito Confectionery (COCOA Bakery, Le Pommier Western Confectionery, Sanriku Confectionery Saito Japanese Confectionery, and Saito Mochi Shop with Nostalgic Flavors)? B We want to include a workshop for the confectionery (Hikari no Asa) that will be released at the same time as the store opens. We want to pay attention to specifications and finishing to ensure hygiene, and consider ways to present the manufacturing process, safety, and security. [Solution] A large symbolic kids' space, inspired by the "Kamome no Tamago" (Seagull Egg) that is visually appealing on social media, was created, along with a cafe space reminiscent of a veranda where customers can gather. In addition, a multi-purpose kitchen space where customers can create their own original Kamome no Tamago (DECO Kamome no Tamago) was installed in a visible area of the store, making it a major attraction. All spaces are separated by glass, allowing customers to see the confectionery being made next to where it is sold, creating a space that appeals to safety and security, among other various measures. <Our Project Members> [Sales & Project Management] Hiroyuki Uesugi [Overall Direction] Hiroyuki Iizumi [design, layout] Kiwamu Okamoto, Takashi Morifuji, Toru Fukiura [Signage & Video Direction] Mayumi Tenma [Production & construction] Manabu Fukuda, Masaya Sawaguchi

[Project Overview] A select pickle shop that showcases Japan's pickle culture from Ginza. It is a select shop for pickles that sells delicious pickles from all over Japan, as well as its own products. Customers can sample and enjoy seasonal pickles made with fresh vegetables. The ingredients were carefully selected and the packaging was concept design from scratch to ensure that the pickles are of a quality that can be enjoyed as Japanese souvenirs and gifts. Our company handles everything from branding and menu development to design administration, interiors concept design and construction, and operation, management. [Client's Challenges] Yamau Co., Ltd., a long-established pickle shop that has been engaged in manufacturing and wholesale, was opening its first flagship store in Ginza. The challenge was to create products that conveyed a sense of luxury that made pickles, which are familiar to Japanese people, suitable for gifts, and to serve as a base for disseminating Japan's unique "pickle culture" in addition to sales. The challenge in terms of architecture was to create a building that was appropriate for the Ginza area, despite various restrictions due to the Ginza location and the shape of a 5-meter wide, 4-story pencil building, while maintaining a Japanese appearance. [Solution] To create an appearance befitting the Ginza district, the exterior facade features an arrangement of kumiko, a traditional Japanese woodworking technique. It combines the good old "tradition" with the "contemporary" aspects that match the times, appealing to people with its "novelty." Inside, traditional materials and finishes are combined to express nostalgia, comfort, and a sense of coziness. A unique sweets shop themed around pickles is also attached. <Our Project Members> [Sales/Project Management] Shigeo Yuasa [Planning/Consulting] Takashi Hosaka, Takashi Isozaki [design, layout] Sakae Kirioka, Nana Kosano [Signage/Graphic concept design] Osamu Hirota, Sora-gumi [Production/ construction] Shigeyuki Ebihara [operation, management] Takahiro Awatani, Takanori Kumon

[Project Overview] Nihonbashi Toyama-kan is a comprehensive information hub centered around a restaurant where visitors can experience the flavors of Toyama, and also offers retail sales, tourist information, and exchange events. Throughout the space, Toyama-produced materials and traditional crafts are used, making it a new hub that conveys the "high-quality lifestyle of Toyama" and not just sells goods, but also conveys the beauty of Toyama's nature, diverse culture, and the allure of its food, making people want to visit Toyama Prefecture. Our company assisted with consulting, design, layout, building execution, event management, and public relations support. [Challenge/Theme] "A place to convey the high-quality lifestyle of Toyama" The theme was to revitalize industry, tourism, etc., by conveying experiences rather than just selling goods. [Solution] We implemented a proposal to "revitalize the facility by introducing a new purpose that will serve as a focal point." By utilizing our CSV solutions for creating public spaces, "Forester Project" (*1) and "Japan Value Project" (*2), we have created a project that is not just a local products store, but can be used for various regional revitalization measures that Toyama Prefecture aims to achieve, such as tourism, industry, and migration. Our designers visited sawmills in Toyama Prefecture to select locally sourced wood, including cedar and zelkova, for the tables and chairs that are actually used in the building. "Forester Project" (*1) A project to develop facilities that strongly imprint a regional brand while supporting the forestry industry by manufacturing interiors, furniture, and fixtures for facilities using domestically produced timber with regional characteristics. "Japan Value Project" (*2) An initiative to collaborate with businesses nationwide that handle traditional techniques and materials and provide a platform for them to be featured in facilities. <Our Project Members> [Development/Project Management] Ryuichi Fujinaka [Sales Promotion] Noboru Sato, Nobuyuki Tanaka [Planning] Echiyo Suzuki, Ryuichi Fujinaka [Creative Direction] Echiyo Suzuki [design, layout] Yutaka Hanaoka [Signage/Graphic concept design] Hisae Ito (Cross) [Production/ construction] Yukio Marumori [Other (Event Planning, Public Relations Support, etc.)] Ryuichi Fujinaka

<Project Description> 3D printing technology liberates jewelry from gravity, creating "zero gravity" (3D Printer Technology liberates the jewellery from gravity). This is the first directly managed flagship store of "TOMOKO KODERA," a jewelry brand created by Tomoko Kodera, the first Japanese designer to win the Grand Prix at the HRD Awards 2015 International Diamond Jewelry Competition, hosted by the world's largest diamond research institution. In a jet-black world reminiscent of outer space, "wind = energy" is expressed through a collection of delicate lines. Jewelry, as crystals of energy, floats in space like a galaxy. To express the "mystery" inherent in TOMOKO KODERA's unconventional creations, all jewelry displays on the ends of pipes suspended from the ceiling using displays parts developed with 3D printing technology. The jewelry shines at the end of the rising energy. Photography: Nacasa & Partners Inc. Tomooki Kengaku
