This project was planned for the area of Platinum Street in Shirokane, lined with restaurants. On a 35-meter-wide site, the aim was to create a building that felt both new and old, with a pleasant atmosphere and a sense of "evoking memories." Aiming to become a landmark in the city as a complex dining space, our company assisted with schematic design and design supervision. A sense of "openness" was required in the architecture, so we created a sense of openness and shielding with folded cement stones, and materials that appear to be eroded by wind and light. This also contributed to creating the atmosphere of "a dry southern land," which was a key concept design word for the interior. Based on a consistent concept, we assisted with everything from interiors concept design to planting and artwork selection to achieve a unified interior that allows you to feel the wind, light, greenery, and water flowing in from the outside. When viewed from the outside, interiors concept design, which extends to the terrace, combines with the landscaping plan to become one of the elements that adorn the facade, and the architectural facade becomes a borrowed landscape from the interior space, creating a space where the inside and outside complement each other. The facility has a dining area, a teppanyaki restaurant, two banquet halls, and a chapel, and all kitchens are either walk-in or open kitchens. The anterooms of the chapel and bucket are separated by glass, emphasizing unobstructed views and spatial continuity within the facility. In addition to being open to the street, the texture created by the materials that have already aged gives the impression that it has been there for a long time, and we believe that it will become a distinctive landmark while also building a close relationship with the city. ◎Our Group Project Members [Sales] Hisayasu Takenaka, Takuya Kitai [Direction] Ryu Kosaka [design, layout] Architecture: Hiroyuki Iizumi Interior: Reiko Saito, Masahiro Hisakane [Production/ construction] Keiji Idei

We assisted with the complete renovation of a 27-year-old rental apartment building consisting of six buildings. Based on the theme of "a New York hotel with a fireplace," we maximized the appeal of the space by incorporating new concept design while preserving the existing architecture. By combining the original sauna and shower rooms with the bathroom, we were able to create a spacious bathroom. The unused fireplace was revived with new equipment and materials, and a woodshed was added to the garden. Natural materials such as solid wood, stone, and plaster walls were used to create a high-quality, relaxing space. The owners, who actually live there, commented, "It feels wonderful every time I come home."

[Project] ORIENTAL HOTEL, one of Japan's oldest hotels, was established in 1870. In March 2010, 15 years after the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, it began to make a new history as a symbol of the city's recovery. Throughout the entire building, while valuing the texture of the materials of stone and wood, we have added an oriental essence to the details to create a calm, high-quality feel and a new uniqueness.

As a facility that plays a central role in the redevelopment project in front of Shizuoka Station, the theme of the upper floors is Euro-Modern, while the theme of the middle floors is Orient-Modern, with 2 chapels and 14 banquet spaces. From the sky chapel on the 25th floor to the large banquet hall on the 4th floor with a ceiling height of more than 6m, we have designed a facility that takes advantage of the architectural characteristics of each and completed a facility that can provide a wealth of options.

[Project Overview] Takashimaya Osaka Store is a historically significant modern building adorned with Corinthian columns and arches, located at the end of Midosuji Avenue. "Namba Dining Maison" is a three-story dining zone spanning the 7th to 9th floors, encompassing both the expanded section and the existing building. It required a blend of Takashimaya's characteristic "high quality and class" and Osaka's distinctive "liveliness and vibrancy." Therefore, the aim was to create a space that evokes the feeling of being in a historically significant building by scattering "memories of modern architecture" throughout the interior space. An original pattern based on the details of the building's exterior, constructed in the early Showa period, was concept design in a modern style and continuously applied to the three-story atrium and in front of the store facade to evoke a Western patio. Furthermore, the architectural exterior details were extended to various parts of the environment to create a sense of unity across the three floors, each with its own distinct scene.
