This is displays project for the newly established "Akita Dog Village" in Odate City, the sacred land of Akita dogs. Taking advantage of this valuable opportunity to interact with real Akita dogs, we created displays space where visitors can learn about how to interact with Akita dogs and their relationship with Odate City in an enjoyable way. [Client's Challenges/Requests] As it is located in front of JR Odate Station and is adjacent to the tourist information center, it was necessary to create an exhibition that is easy for tourists to enjoy and provides just the right amount of information. In addition, the design of the area where visitors can interact with real dogs must be concept design to not stress the dogs, which required ingenuity. [Solution] We created a bright and comfortable space that evokes the image of a slightly adult camping trip, using tents and hammocks. Within this space, visitors can play with stamps and frottage, and learn about the history of Akita dogs born in Odate. The displays area is designed with consideration for the dogs' stress levels, and easy-to-manage cages have been introduced. <Our Project Members> [Sales & Project Management] Akira Kato [Planning] Mima Inagaki [design, layout] Yu Uehara, Mika Watanabe [Production & construction] Junya Hanayama

"Attack on Titan," a dark fantasy battle manga, began serialization in Bessatsu Shonen Magazine in 2009. In 2014, the first original artwork exhibition, "Attack on Titan Exhibition," was held, attracting over 450,000 visitors, including those who attended the traveling exhibition. Now, in 2019, as the story approaches its conclusion, this original artwork exhibition, titled "Attack on Titan Exhibition FINAL," condenses the past 10 years. In addition to displaying more original artwork than the previous displays, it is an exhibition where visitors can experience the history and worldview of the work as a culmination of the series, with branching paths that allow visitors to relive the characters' "choices," a 1:1 scale diorama theater that immerses visitors in the world of the story, and an displays of the final episode that can be heard only through sound. Our company assisted with the planning, design, layout, and construction of the spatial presentation, as we did with the previous exhibition. *This exhibition was held in Tokyo from July 5th (Fri) to September 8th (Sun), 2019, and in Osaka from September 21st (Sat) to December 1st (Sun), 2019. ©Hajime Isayama/Kodansha/Attack on Titan Exhibition FINAL Production Committee <Our Project Members> [Sales/Project Management] Haruhiko Kako, Shioto Kawashima [Creative Direction] Ryuta Yamada [Spatial concept design] Yuya Tagami [Sculpture concept design] Satoshi Nakagawa, Yuki Toyoda [Graphic concept design] Yasuyuki Chosa [Systems Engineering] Kenji Suzuki [Production/ construction] Yohei Ishikawa, Shunsaku Kimura, Sota Onishi

Moominvalley Park opened on March 16, 2019, in Hannō City, Saitama Prefecture. Our company was in charge of the entire park's planning, design, production planning, and construction. [Client's Challenges/Themes] As this is the world's first permanent Moomin theme park, there were no precedents, and it was necessary to obtain approval from the Moomin Characters copyright holder from scratch regarding what kind of facility it should be and what kind of attractions would be best. In addition, the scope of responsibility was wide-ranging, requiring a large, well-coordinated team. [Solution] Through the deep understanding of the original work by the project members and repeated careful confirmation work with the copyright holder, we ultimately received very high praise from the copyright holder, leading to smooth approval. Furthermore, by assigning a project team from the entire NOMURA Co.,Ltd. Group, we created a situation where communication could be maintained at all times in every field. [Client's Voice] The project members' deep understanding of the Moomin characters and stories, and their affectionate approach to content creation, earned the trust of the licensor, and the approval process proceeded smoothly. The facility has received high praise from guests for being "a place where you can feel the love for the characters." <Our Project Members> [Sales & Project Management] Shingo Terasaki, Shioto Kawashima, Mirai Suzuki, Morifumi Nihei, Junichi Manabe, Haruhiko Kako [Planning & Design] Masaki Kawahara, Kyosuke Horie, Tomohisa Sasa, Sakae Kirioka, Kentaro Yamada, Yoko Suzuki, Masahiro Sugihara, Yuki Handa, Manami Nagao, Eri Isoyama, Satoshi Nakagawa, Aya Oikawa, Noriko Osaki, Kazumi Shimada, Yuki Toyoda, Rina Saito, Ryosuke Naga [Graphic concept design] Minori Konno, Misao Kaneko, Ayaka Hagiya, Mayu Toyoda, Fujie Suzuki [Production & construction] Shunsaku Kimura, Tetsuji Inoue, Chuzo Seki, Kunihiko Hashimoto Nomura Products: Kiyohiko Hoshi, Naohiro Mori, Takeshi Niimi, Kiyomi Naoyuki, Wataru Yoshida [Systems Engineering] Kenji Suzuki, Isao Yokota Nomura Techno: Katsuji Oguchi, Masahiro Takano [Structural Calculation Services] Kiichi Fujihira

[Project Description] This project involved the development of a lively ground-floor facility as part of the rebuilding of the Mitsubishi UFJ Bank Osaka Building. Planning and consideration began in the spring of 2013, and the facility opened in August 2018. With the aim of "creating a lively atmosphere in the surrounding area and the Midosuji area" and "creating a high-quality space befitting a bank building," a cafe and gallery lounge were introduced. The gallery displays paintings and historical materials (coins, money exchange tools, etc.) owned by the bank, providing a space where visitors can relax and casually experience art and history. A corner introducing nearby landmarks and historical sites has also been added to encourage people to explore the surrounding area. Our company was responsible for planning and consulting, design, layout and supervision, and the production and construction of displays, furniture, and fixtures during the development, and we have also assisted with some of the post-opening operations. [Client's Challenges/Requests] This project tested NOMURA Co.,Ltd. 's overall capabilities in creating a vibrant facility, a first for the bank, as it required planning and concept design skills to realize the seemingly contradictory themes of "creating a lively atmosphere" and "displays a high-quality space." [Solution] Regarding the spatial concept design, we aimed to create a concept design where people with various purposes could gather in the same space by spatially connecting multiple elements such as a cafe, gallery, local exhibitions, currency displays, ATMs, and foreign currency exchange corners in a lounge, creating an integrated configuration. Furthermore, by being involved in the operation after opening, we will continue to be involved in "creating a lively atmosphere," which was the theme from the beginning of development. <Our Project Members> [Development] Motoo Kawada [Project Management & Sales] Motoo Kawada, Yuha Nakamura [Planning & Consulting] Hiroshi Yoshimoto, Reiko Kuroda, Rie Hasegawa, Nobuaki Yabe, Konomi Taki, Toko Takeuchi [design, layout] Masao Nemoto, Masahiro Hisakane [Production & construction] Hironari Ota, Takahiro Nakayama [operation, management] Motoo Kawada Photography: Masato Kono (Nakasa & Partners Co., Ltd.)

"SUSHI TOKYO TEN" has opened in Shibuya Stream. Shibuya is being reborn as a city where the generation that was once young people returns as working adults. We aimed to create a new kind of sushi restaurant that would make enjoying sushi feel familiar and fresh to this generation of adults. By reinterpreting and expressing the "chic" and unique "incognito" feel of Edo-style sushi with a modern image, we have created a sushi restaurant that is fitting for the new Shibuya. [Client's Challenges/Requests] The client wanted to create a restaurant where the sense of presence at the counter, which is the essence of a sushi restaurant, could be felt throughout the entire restaurant, including the table seats. [Solution] By covering the entire space of the restaurant with a single triangular roof, we created a unified concept design that makes the space from the eaves to the counter feel like one. <Our Project Members> [Development] Jun Nakata [Sales/Project Management] Takayuki Mori [design, layout] Shinjiro Kondo, Nao Hiura

Starbucks Reserve(R) Roastery Tokyo, which combines coffee bean roasting capabilities, opened along the Meguro River in Nakameguro, Tokyo. This is the first Starbucks store to open in Japan and the fifth in the world. Each floor of the four-story store offers a different experience. Located in a vibrant and creative neighborhood, this charming concept design was inspired by the famous rows of cherry trees that line the Meguro River in full bloom. The space concept design aims to blend with the natural beauty of various parts of Japan, and is symbolized by an expansive glass surface that extends to the ceiling and a warm wooden terrace seating area. In the center of the store, a 17-meter-high cascade stretches to the fourth floor, where coffee beans are stored. 121 hand-hammered copper plates cover the surface. Pipes carrying coffee beans run around the cask and throughout the restaurant, while the main bar on the first floor offers a variety of coffee brewing methods, and the authentic artisan bread available at the Italian bakery Princi (R), the first of its kind in Japan, is another attraction. In the area with a large roasting machine, visitors can also enjoy communicating with baristas and roasters over the counter; the Tibana Bar on the second floor offers a unique tea experience and a taste of the traditional Japanese tea journey, while the Alibiamo Bar, the first of its kind in Japan on the third floor, offers mixology and Craft Cocktails on the 3rd floor, where you can immerse yourself in a world of mixology and craft cocktails. In addition, the AMU Inspiration Lounge on the top four floors will serve as a venue for casual talks about social issues, a community outreach center, and a coffee training facility. 　The store will be the first Starbucks Roastery in Tokyo to be built from the ground up with a local architect, and the store exterior will be a collaboration with Kengo Kuma, a leading Japanese architect. concept design The space is a fusion of Japanese nature and tradition with modern concept design architecture, creating a space where people can explore and enjoy the experience of coffee. Based on the concept of a roasting factory and seating area coexisting in the same space, we sought a dynamic and entertaining composition incorporating the roastery's symbolic "cask" and bean pressure pipes, as well as an odd combination of delicate and understated Japanese materials. Solution: The cask is surrounded by a cherry blossom petal motif inspired by the cherry trees along the Meguro River. The cask itself was concept design patterned in such a way that the eye is guided upward, like the steam rising from a cup of coffee. The furniture is also interiors ・In addition to incorporating traditional Japanese craftsmanship and material processing throughout, we have added contemporary touches to create a new concept design, like the copper cascade and origami motif on the ceiling. We have created a space that will surprise, inspire, and engage visitors in the coffee experience. The first time you step into the shop, you will be overwhelmed by the overwhelming space. The fusion of Japanese nature and tradition with the modern concept design and the creation of each and every detail has been echoed by customers as one of the values of the immersive experience. In addition to the coffee and tea products, the entire world view of the building, which is surprising and exciting, is one of the main experiences of the Roastery Tokyo. ＜Our project members＞ 【interiors schematic design Cooperation, artwork concept design】 Eiji Kawasaki, Mai Takahashi 【working drawings】 Kyoko Aikawa, Yo Yamamoto, Yuki Yamaguchi, Junya Hagiwara 【 Production construction】 Ryohei Azechi, Jun Endo, Osamu Kojima 【 Project management, sales】 Seiji Yamaguchi, Yukako Ninomiya

ボッシュ株式会社渋谷本社の改装プロジェクト。当社は10階の1フロアをコミュニケーションスペースに改装するための、企画・デザイン・設計・施工を担当させて頂きました。当社本社ビル4階をコミュニケーションスペース「RE/SP」に改装した経験から、社員間の交流が生まれるしかけづくりの創出が大事だと考えました。「SCRAMBLE for MEET UP」（人が集まり、Hatch new ideas「新しいアイディアを孵化」し、また外へ飛び立つ）をコンセプトに、多様な社員が日常的に集まり交流する場の創出を目指して設計しています。ボッシュ様の本社がある渋谷のように、出会いと交流を通しての混ざり合いを表現するため、さまざまなアーティストとコラボレーションしながら空間を構成し、オープンな気持ちで交流できる開放的なデザインとしています。また、ロゴデザインやイベント企画運営といった、コトづくりのフェーズからも参画させて頂きました。   【お客様の課題/テーマ】 社内のコミュニケーション活性化やイノベーション創出を目指して、執務フロアとは違う視点で交流できる場のデザインを求められました。   【解決策】 社員一人ひとりがバイタリティを取り戻し、つながりを深められるような空間構成を提案しました。具体的には、年齢や部門の垣根を越えたコミュニケーションのきっかけづくりを目的とし、コーヒーを片手にカジュアルな会話ができるカウンター、ソファに腰掛けくつろぐことができる場、体を動かしてリフレッシュできるスペースなど、大きく6つの機能にエリア分けをおこないました。コミュニケーションのきっかけとなるような家具やアートを積極的に取り入れることで執務エリアでは生みだしづらい偶発的なアイデアが生まれる場になることも目指しました。また、ボッシュのDNAに触れることができる製品展示もおこない、イノベーションを生み出す上でのヒントを与える場にもなっています。   ＜当社プロジェクトメンバー＞ 【営業・プロジェクトマネジメント】石井 和茂、村上 香織、獅々堀 智世 【デザイン・設計】山野辺 学、萩原 充隆 【企画】増渕 健太 【制作・施工】小池 徹治
