The artwork scattered throughout the facility carries messages built from extensive research and data on motorsports, making it enjoyable for both amateurs and experts. Furthermore, it is the world's first museum to displays and introduce motorsports in a holistic history, transcending manufacturer boundaries. Rather than relying on explanatory texts, the aim is to create displays displays that allows visitors to intuitively grasp the value that motorsports culture has brought to society throughout history. displays structure combines vehicles with historical contexts, allowing visitors to explore and survey the evolution of motorsports. The main zone, in particular, is impressively presented with immersive theater-style displays incorporating video and audio.

This project involves renovating an old farmhouse in the Kodohi district of Izu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, into a rental accommodation facility. This district was once a quiet area where a local magistrate resided, and the plan is to provide a stay that incorporates the surrounding environment, allowing guests to experience a slower pace of life that transcends time. The main house will be equipped with a kitchen and will offer services such as dinner by a visiting chef and alcohol service from a mobile bar. For interiors, local materials will be used, such as earthen walls made from local soil and a dining table made from locally sourced cherry wood, attempting to create a space using local materials, just as in the Edo period. [Social Issues/Client Issues/Requests] In order to make the most of the old farmhouse as a rental facility, the client requested an attractive spatial concept design that takes into account the characteristics of the site. [Solutions] While utilizing the charm of the existing building, the design incorporates a spatial configuration that maximizes the surrounding views and finishes that utilize local soil and other materials. <Our Project Members> [Sales & Project Management] Shinya Hiratsuka, Nobuyuki Yagi [Overall Supervision] Norio Koito [Planning] Saki Ninomiya [design, layout] Hirofumi Inoue ~Related Links~ [Press Releases] ・ NOMURA Co.,Ltd.

Located near Shijo Omiya in Kyoto, this project renovated an entire alley lined with townhouses built over 110 years ago into an inn. Passing through the reception building, you will find 23 guest rooms, a warehouse, and a restaurant building lined up along the stone-paved alley, creating a gorgeous view reminiscent of the entertainment district of the Edo period. There are five types of guest rooms, all themed on the natural beauty of Kyoto, allowing you to experience the charm of the region in both tangible and intangible culture. The restaurant building in the center of the alley houses a Japanese beef restaurant, making it a unique space that promotes Japanese culture, including food, to the world. The site is approximately 1,400 m2 and includes 26 wooden buildings, making this the largest renovation project in Kyoto's history, attracting attention from Kyoto City.

This project involved the revitalization of a samurai residence, over 140 years old, located in the castle town of Obi Castle in Nichinan City, Miyazaki Prefecture, into a tourist hub and hot spring inn. Each of the five guest rooms is concept design with a theme reflecting the local area, incorporating the town's color "purple," "cedar" which supports the industry, "tea trees" which are used in hedges as part of the local culture, "bitter orange" which is the city's citrus fruit, and "moss," which is important to the town's landscape. This project utilized subsidies from the "Shopping Street Revitalization and Tourism Consumption Creation Project," and our company participated extensively in the project, from hardware to software, including creating cards and maps to encourage exploration of the area in collaboration with local shops, developing cooking experiences, and installing lanterns as streetlights starting from the inn. The inn has been successfully revitalized and is poised to become a central element in future town development.

"A funeral hall that is close to the community" This is a funeral hall in Mitaka City, Tokyo, operated by Memolead Co., Ltd., which provides life support services including weddings and funerals. Our company was in charge of the entire process, from design, layout of the building, interiors, FF&E, and signage to construction. The facility is used to conduct a complete funeral service, consisting of two halls, a purification hall that is used in conjunction with the funeral hall, a mortuary, a bathing room, a waiting room, and a departure and parking space. In response to the surrounding lush green and pleasant residential environment, the concept was "a funeral hall that resonates with the town," "a residence-like appearance with textured finishes," and "an inviting space that continues from the outside to the inside." The building is low-rise with green spaces, and the pilotis and openings allow the community, nature, and light to enter, creating a spatial configuration that blends in with the surrounding environment. In addition, the space is connected from the pilotis to the first-floor entrance and from the stairs to the second-floor foyer, and by drawing light from the second floor to the first floor, the external space is configured to appear as if it is continuous with the interior. interiors and FF&E (Funeral, Funeral, and Etiquette) were concept design with the concept of "an organic space that envelops precious time with the deceased," creating a calm and gentle impression that softly embraces the time that has been woven and accumulated. At the same time, while taking into account the regulations of Mitaka City and explaining to neighbors, we aimed to create a funeral hall that is close to the community in both hardware and software aspects. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] As the funeral hall is located in a residential area, consideration for the neighbors was consistently required in both hardware and software aspects. In addition, recently, it has become less common to hold wakes and funeral services over two days, with one-day funerals and family funerals being the mainstream, and the number of attendees has also been limited due to the impact of COVID-19, so there was a request for a space concept design that can accommodate short periods and small numbers of people. [Solution] In consideration of the neighbors, the design reduces the sense of oppression by making it low-rise, set back from the road*, and incorporating green space, and by using textured finishes to give it the appearance of a residence, the image of a funeral hall is minimized, and concept design blends in with the surrounding residential environment. The piloti on the first floor is a softly partitioned space, using wire-based greenery and louvers to block the view, rather than concealing it with walls, thus creating a space that embraces the surrounding environment. The facility's activities are felt, and it is a space that can be easily entered during events, so it was planned to be a facility that is recognized and understood by nearby residents. At the same time, while responding to Mitaka City regulations and explaining to neighbors, we aimed to create a "funeral hall that is close to the community" in both hardware and software. As a space concept design that accommodates short periods and small numbers of people, we used organic finishes for interiors and FF&E to create a calm and gentle space, so as not to make it a functional space lacking in warmth. *Setback refers to ensuring a certain distance from the property boundary when constructing a building. <Our Project Members> [Sales/Project Management] Hiroshige Sakimoto [design, layout] NAU: Yoichi Kawakami, Norio Koito, Wataru Sugimoto, Akane Watanabe / Kei Matsuzawa [Signage] Tomomi Ito [Production/ construction] Keita Ide, Ryota Sakurai

The construction site is located along Midosuji Street in Minamisenba 4-chome, Chuo Ward, Osaka. It was designed by Nikken Sekkei and design supervision by Tadao ANDO. The interior concept design is concrete. our company was in charge of production construction for interiors. One of the brands developed by Marriott International, the luxury lifestyle hotel W (W), established in New York in 1998, is making its first appearance in Japan. [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] On the contrary to the gorgeous concept design, all of the ceiling and walls were three-dimensional, so it was a very difficult construction for both the manufacture and construction. [Solution] In order to realize the wishes of the business owner and the designer, all concerned parties worked together to pursue quality in every detail, and the construction was successfully completed. [Customer Comments] Thank you for completing the high quality construction in a short period of time on the lower floor where various construction works are complicated. < our company Project Members > [Sales/Project Management] Moriya Sakata [Production/construction] Takashi Okuno, Yuji Hirayama, Akiko Yamaguchi, Narinori Ueno, Rikito Maruchi, Kosuke Nakaseko [Design] Kazuhiko Ueda, Hideyuki Sanada

This is a plan for an urban tourist hotel set in Susukino, Sapporo. Susukino, a downtown area that represents Sapporo, is filled with the charm of "food" from all over Hokkaido, overflowing with delicious happiness, and aimed to create a lobby space that stimulates your appetite. We created a space and experience with motifs related to food, such as a signboard wall of a fictitious store with the motif of the Susukino entertainment district, and a neighborhood map that imitates a wooden box for shipping seafood.

"OMO5 Kyoto Sanjo" has opened on Kyoto Sanjo Street, where Kyoto is packed with fun things to see, buy, and eat. As a mechanism to fully enjoy "Kyoto Sanjo", there is a townhouse tower that conveys the history of Takasegawa and information on shops, a town walking map that allows you to enjoy two different courses along the Takasegawa and Sanjo retro town, and a walking map around Sanjo. In the lobby, we have set up content that leads to walking around Sanjo, such as an artwork with the letter "San" lined up with old maps from three different eras, and an art panel frottage of Sanjo no Michi. In addition, in the renovation of the guest room, we have created a small rise where suitcases can be stored, and have devised ways to use the space widely by consolidating the bed and sofa areas.

HERALBONY Inc. defines art created by artists with intellectual disabilities as "unique" and is a company that develops and expands it into various things, events, and places in society. In a collaboration with Hyatt Centric Ginza Tokyo, located on Namiki Street in Ginza, we provided spatial concept design and construction support for the guest rooms. [Social Issues/Client Issues/Requests] HERALBONY's fashion brand "HERALBONY" aims to dissolve the invisible boundaries between people and fields that are difficult to engage with in everyday life, such as "welfare" and "disability," and to expand its domain as a "lifestyle brand" in order to create a new lifestyle starting from welfare. This time, as the first step in a lifestyle brand decorating a space, we concept design and directed the collaboration room. Not only did we decorate the hotel room, but we also created an opportunity for art to blend into everyday lifestyles through this space. [Solution] We have created a space that allows guests to experience a rich time as if they have stepped into an ever-expanding world of art while spending time in their rooms. This space serves as a hub, connecting to the idea of art blending into the time spent at home, and is designed to encourage many conversations and discoveries as guests view the art that is integrated throughout the space. <Our Project Members> [Sales & Project Management] Chisato Kamidate [concept design] Akane Yamaguchi, Ryo Onishi, Minehito Yoshimura, Takashi Kato [Production & construction] Atsushi Hatano, Risa Yoshida, Satoshi Oda ~Related Links~ [Press Releases] ・ NOMURA Co.,Ltd. collaborates on spatial concept design for the exhibition "HERALBONY/A Unique Future" now on sale ・ NOMURA Co.,Ltd., Ltd.'s social good activities: The case of HERALBONY ART ROOM at Hyatt Centric Ginza Tokyo Changing society through the resonance of art and spatial concept design [nomlog] ・Changing society through the resonance of art and spatial concept design- HYATT CENTRIC GINZA TOKYO HERALBONY ART ROOM

In 1991, exactly 30 years ago, River City 21 East Towers was completed as a pioneer in Tokyo waterfront development and the prototype of tower-type high-rise condominiums that prioritize views. Located in Tsukuda 2-chome, Chuo-ku, it boasts an excellent location with easy access from Tsukishima Station as the nearest station, as well as Tokyo Station and Ginza Station, making it an area with a diverse range of residents. In the Edo period, it was also known as Ishikawajima, and within the modern cityscape, you can feel the history of the Showa era in various places, such as Tsukishima's unique food culture and the shopping streets that exude the atmosphere of old Tokyo, creating a unique culture even within Tokyo. This project was planned with the aim of extensively renovating the condominium complex (four buildings), including public open spaces, in order to welcome new residents and to further increase the asset value. [Solution] In solving the client's challenges, we planned the project with a new concept called "1.5 Place," which means creating a 2nd Place function and a 3rd Place time around one's 1st Place, which is one's home. Furthermore, through the implementation and analysis of surveys conducted among residents, we confirmed that there was no discrepancy between the functions and concept design direction of the newly constructed rooms and spaces. In particular, in order to respond to the requests of residents that became clear from the survey analysis, we planned not only to improve the functionality of the entrance, meeting room, and lounge, but also to co-working spaces that anticipate diverse ways of living, working, and gathering, as well as places where communication can be fostered. This created a "highly social and altruistic space" and a "space whose value increases over time," leading to improved resident satisfaction and the realization of new attractions. We also proposed from an SDG perspective, and in addition to solving the problem of sustainable economic and social conditions as discussed in general terms, we understood the place and user perspective of this project, and while taking into account factors that influence the living environment such as tradition, culture, and local conditions, we imbued concept design concept and materials with meaning and realized an approach that is appropriate for this property. In realizing these solutions, our company's various sections worked together as a unified team, reliably utilizing design, layout, research, promotion, and construction capabilities to respond quickly and accurately to the client's requests. <Our Project Members> [Development] Takuya Kitai, Kayu Tatsumi [Sales & Project Promotion] Kayu Tatsumi, Midori Nakayabu [Research & Analysis] Sayuri Murata, Ai Ichikawa [Overall Direction] no.10: Keita Aono [design, layout] no.10: Naoaki Yokoyama, Gen Tomita, Mayu Araki, Asuka Tomioka [Sign & Graphic Direction] no.10: Asuka Tomioka [Product Management] Manabu Fukuda, Takashi Arai [Equipment Design] Takaya Ota [Production, construction & Site Supervision] Takashi Arai, Katsumi Chikada, Kyosuke Sasa

This project is the culmination of the "A brand that occupies over 100m2 of land in central Tokyo, is particular about location and property value, and provides essential living through renovation." R100 TOKYO, which is being developed by Libita. our company provided construction support for the renovation of Opus Arisugawa, a representative residence in Tokyo with a property area of approximately 198m2, which was developed by OEO Studio, a Danish concept design company in concept design. Based on the concepts of "CROSS-CULTURAL" and "COMPELLING MINIMALISM," this is a living space in concept design that incorporates new proposals based on the sensibilities common to Scandinavia and Japan. By using natural materials such as solid wood, which become more attractive the more you use them, the new units will bring more blessings to your life the longer you live with them. The goal of R100 TOKYO is to create a "valuable home 100 years into the future.". [Social Issues/Customer Issues/Requests] In the recent high-class residential market in central Tokyo, there is a growing demand for housing with unique value that is not limited to conventional values such as real estate prices and housing functions. Among the Livita projects that aim to "We will continue to create the next common sense in order to restore the value of Japanese housing and real estate and leave it to the future." the challenge for this project, which emphasizes natural materials and traditional construction methods, was whether it would be feasible as a housing performance. [Solution] Various types of stone, plasterer, solid wood, plate construction, ceramic tiles, etc., were discussed and promoted so that natural materials and crafts could be utilized in the living space considering the housing performance. A solid wood kitchen from the Danish kitchen workshop Garde Hvalsøe (pronounced Garde Wells), the first of its kind in Japan to be installed in an ordinary house, has a significant presence in the living space. As there is no solid wood kitchen that can replace it, our company's Global Division imported it from Denmark. [Customer feedback] Thanks to their high level of technology and management, such as proposing a solution to the difficult construction, fitting details accurately, and adhering to the construction schedule, we were able to proceed with the overall schedule without any delay, and we were able to create a wonderful space that reflected the designer's intention. < our company Project Members > [Project Management] Masahiro Harada [Product Direction] Mikiya Fujitaka [Global Supply] Hiroyuki Nakagome

As a hotel that introduces "Kyoto Toji Temple" in an easy-to-understand manner that cannot be fully enjoyed in a one-time sightseeing trip, the little-known Buddha statue mandala is illustrated, and you can walk around the city freely opening and closing while comparing the old and the modern. In the lobby, we installed a map, a large table where you can copy sutras with sand, and a wall artwork of Buddha smiling with a motion sensor. In addition, the full-size pillar with a motif of a five-storied pagoda was used as a bookshelf to impart wisdom because the actual central pillar itself is a mandala.
