<Project Description> 3D printer technology liberates jewellery from gravity, creating "zero gravity." This is the first directly managed street store for the jewellery brand "TOMOKO KODERA," created by designer Tomoko Kodera, the first Japanese designer to win the Grand Prize at the 2015 HRD Awards International Diamond Jewellery Competition, sponsored by the world's largest diamond research institute. The wind = energy that appears in the pitch black world that evokes the universe is expressed through a collection of delicate lines. The jewellery, as a crystallisation of energy, floats in space like a galaxy. In order to express the "mystery" hidden in TOMOKO KODERA's creations, which are not bound by conventional concepts, in the space as well, all the jewellery displays on the tips of pipes suspended from the ceiling with displays parts developed using 3D printer technology. The jewellery shines at the tip of the rising energy. Photo: Tomooki Kengaku, Nacasa & Partners Inc

<Description of the project> Seven Park Ario Kashiwa, a large-scale shopping center that opened in April 2016, has attracted more than 1 million visitors within 10 days of its opening. "SKY KIDS" is a children's space within it, where local children can play safely and securely at any time. Therefore, as the main children's experience, we developed three interactive contents using multi-large screen signage, and "interactive play equipment" that responds to sound and light when touched or hit. It is a mechanism that aims to naturally train creativity, physical strength, and communication skills by letting children become absorbed in playing.

<Project description> The Kyoto Railway Museum, where visitors can experience the progress of Japan's modernization through the history of railways, has opened in Kyoto, a place that respects tradition while constantly innovating. The museum's basic concept is a "railway culture hub that advances with the local community." Its basic mission is to "contribute to the revitalization of the local community through business activities centered on railways," and it aims to coexist with the local community. We assisted with consulting, planning and design, and displays production. <Our project members> [Development] Nishimura Akihiko [Sales and project management] Iwamoto Noriyuki [Direction] Kurihara Takahiro [Planning] Yoshimoto Yukihiro, Kishida Kyohei [Consulting] Kurihara Takahiro, Yoshimoto Yukihiro, Okuda Ryuichi [Art direction] Okuda Ryuichi [design, layout planning] Mizuno Koki, Takahashi Kenji [Sign and graphic concept design] Umedani Shota, Yoshioka Mieko [Production and construction] Hirayama Akio, Takashi Akimitsu, Funakura Michitaka, Nakajima Masanori, Wakasugi Soji, Inoue Daisuke, Hara Hideo, Tsuge Katsuyoshi [Maintenance planning] Yasukawa Akihiro, Araki Tomokazu [Operation planning] Makura Tsutomu [public relations] Matsuura Hitomi, Yoshida Yuri, Sone Satoko

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This facility will be closed for renewal in 2022 and reopened on April 18, 2023 as a new facility called Sunshine 60 Observation Deck Tenbo Park" on April 18, 2023. (NOMURA Scope of work: planning, design, leasing, construction, logo creation) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Experience the view and height in various ways The new observatory "SKY CIRCUS Sunshine 60 Observation Deck" (SKY CIRCUS Sunshine 60 Observation Deck), where visitors can enjoy and experience views and heights in various ways, fully reopened on April 21, 2016 (Thursday). This facility has evolved from "an observatory for just looking" to "an observatory for experiencing" under the concept of "SKY CIRCUS," and offers a variety of state-of-the-art technologies, including VR technology and 4D experiences, interactive animation, and CG animation, to provide visitors with a "view" while enjoying the "view. The new observatory is a one-of-a-kind observatory where visitors can enjoy the "view" and play with "technology" at the same time. We planned and produced this project in collaboration with Dentsu Inc. The "Infinite Scape" is a giant kaleidoscope-like tunnel of light and mirrors that projects images depicting the changing seasons in Japan, and the "SKY Trampoline" is a vertical leaping experience that allows visitors to enjoy the feeling of flying through the air over natural sights of the four seasons filmed by a drone, Visitors can also enjoy inbound content. Visitors can also enjoy "Kaleidoscope 60," which features 60 kaleidoscopes and a sparkling "CUMOS Cube Kaleidoscope," and "Asobrella NEXT," an entertainment experience that offers views, weather, and simulated experiences, among others. Through industry-academia collaboration with Joshibi University of Art and Design, Osaka University, and other educational institutions, we are creating new experiences by transforming technology into entertainment. NOMURA Nomura Development Inc. will operate and manage the SKY CIRCUS SHOP and Cafe Quu Quu Quu, Nomura Techno Inc. will be in charge of the technical system for the production equipment, and interiors Nomura Products Inc. will be in charge of the production, taking advantage of the company's comprehensive capabilities to create a world-class observatory. Nomura Development Inc. was in charge of the technical system for the staging equipment, and Nomura Products Inc. was in charge of the production. ＜This project was not a typical observatory renewal project to clean up the environment interiors, but a project to create value for a new observatory, and it was a difficult project to create something from nothing. Therefore, as a client, we were looking for new ideas that would entertain, surprise, and delight the guests. We were able to meet these requirements not by simply making one-sided proposals, but by working together enthusiastically to create them through free and vigorous discussion within the project team and, at times, by presenting the client with bitter criticisms. It was a great benefit for us to experience a new renewal method that was different from the competition style renewals we had done in the past. ＜Our project members＞ [Sales and project management] Hiroyu Imaizumi, Seiji Yamaguchi, Kenji Higashi [Planning] Kenichi Sakazume, Tetsuro Yasuda, Ai Ichikawa [design, layout] Tamae Takahashi, Yoko Suzuki, Kyoku Okamoto, Masataka Myonaka [Contents planning and concept design] Ryuta Yamada [Signage and graphics concept design] Yasuyuki Chosa [Contents production and construction] Toshiaki Kawabata, Junpei Hino construction Kondo Kobayashi, Keiji Kobayashi, Yuki Kuga, Nomura Techno [interiors] Masao Tomita, Tetsu Hirayama, Yoji Inuma, Nomura Products [Management] Kazuhiko Someya, Hajime Mizuno, Harue Inagaki, Yuki Saito ([maintenance management] Yoshitaka Okubo, Kazumasa Takeuchi, Nomura Techno)

[Project Summary] The "NGT48 Theater" will open on January 10, 2016, as a dedicated theater for Niigata NGT48, the fifth idol group formed in Japan by the AKB group. The project is being run by AKS Co., Ltd., and was attracted to the "Labra 2" commercial complex (operated and managed by the Mitsui Fudosan Group) in the central business district of Niigata City as a core attraction for customers. Unlike previous AKB groups, the group is attracting attention as an idol unit that will promote and revitalize the local area in many ways, and this is also reflected in the concept of the theater, its various mechanisms and design. NOMURA Ltd. worked with Shimizu Corporation from the early stages of planning, and was responsible for the theater's concept design, planning of the production equipment, and the design and construction of the theater.

<Project Summary> This facility was planned and designed as a base for exchange and activities across business types and categories, operated by an affiliated organization of Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. Aiming to realize a sustainable society for the next generation, the facility was named "3x3LabFuture" because the three elements of "environment," "economy," and "society" mesh like gears, and it is a "third place" that is neither a company nor a home. The purpose of the facility is to form various communities and create businesses that will lead to the future. <Client's Challenge> The client's challenge was to create a wide variety of gathering spaces where various business types and visitors, from one person to a large number of people, could interact and engage in activities, and to express the environmental advancement of the office facilities. <Solution> We planned and designed a space that can hold large seminars such as a "salon," a "communication zone" that can be freely moved and used, a "workshop kitchen" and a "future cafe" as exchange spaces using cooking as a medium, and a "wonderful corridor" where various displays can be held. All interiors materials, furniture, fixtures, etc. were selected with the environment in mind. <Our project members> [design, layout] Suzuki Echiyo, Onishi Ryo, Kosugi Kyoko [Production and construction] Marumori Yukio [Sales and project management] Kawai Shun

<Project Description> Mt. Fuji is a world cultural heritage that Japan is proud of. The Mt. Fuji World Heritage Center is a facility that raises awareness of the importance of learning and enjoying the value of Mt. Fuji, which was registered as a world heritage site as an object of faith and a source of artistic inspiration, from both the natural and cultural perspectives, and of preserving it for the future. Our company solved the problem of effectively conveying the "interestingness of learning about Mt. Fuji" to visitors, including many foreigners, by providing a spatial experience with audio, video, and lighting productions featuring non-verbal content (non-verbal displays), and an displays guide using the app "Fuji Meguri," which includes multilingual (7 languages) explanations and audio commentary narrated by Shuzo Matsuoka. The combination of "huge object structures" + "ICT content" + "lighting, audio, and video" creates an experience that can only be found here. [What is the original app "Fuji Meguri"?] It is AR content that works with about 30 displays items. You can enjoy AR where figures of people connected to Mt. Fuji start talking, and AR where ancient pilgrimage routes appear on a floor map with a diameter of 18m. In addition, if you take it outside, it can also be used as a tool to explain famous places such as temples, shrines, lakes, and hiking trails. <Our project members> [Development] Yokoyama Masanori [Sales/Project Management] Mizoguchi Kohei [Planning] Kameyama Yuichi, Ohashi Ryuta [design, layout] Tsutsumi Yuichiro [Digital concept design] Mima Hiroyoshi [Library concept design] Odagiri Toshihiko [Modeling concept design] Kishikawa Kenichi [Production/ construction] Yajima Kensaku, Ohara Yuka

■Project Description Narafamily, a large-scale commercial facility that has been loved for many years in Saidaiji, Yamato, Nara Prefecture, has been transforming into a high-quality urban commercial facility. In the spring of 2016, a full renovation of the building was started with a business investment of approximately 5 billion yen, and it was successfully reopened in the fall of the same year. In collaboration with general producer Junji Tanigawa of JTQ Inc. and general creative director Ryu Kosaka of AND, the environmental design concept was "Yamato Modern", which explored the "Nara-ness" of the building. The concept design expresses the strength of Nara, which is reminiscent of ancient temples and Buddhist statues, with a sense of volume, and the glittering arrangement that interprets the beauty of "Tenpyo culture" in a modern way, further highlighting the facility. The logo mark, facility signs, and other details have been renewed with a "Yamato Modern" concept design scheme, and the statue of "Pocola", the camel that has been the facility's image character for many years, has been newly installed in Camel Square as the second "Pocola" by sculptor Ryuichi Ohira. The renovation has significantly expanded the specialty store zone, and the facility has been revamped to create an easy-to-understand shopping flow line. In addition to brands opening for the first time in Nara Prefecture, 55 new stores have opened, including fashion tenants and large household goods tenants. The new specialty store area has been reborn as "zoro". ■Project members < NOMURA project members> [design, layout] Chief creative director: Kosaka Ryu (AND) / concept design director: Saeki Shunsuke / Chief designers: Shirodo Kensaku / Yoshinaga Hikari [Sign and graphic concept design] Ito Tomomi / Tsukamoto Tomohisa (Nomura Products) [Production and construction] Kaji Yuki / Okuno Takashi / Kobayashi Hiroto / Banno Katsuya / Yashima Takuya / Okimoto Ryuta / Tokuda Yonosuke / Akizawa Yutaka (Nomura Products) [furniture and fixture manufacturing office] Suzuki Toshimichi / Arii Tetsuhiko [Sales] Project manager and soft sales: Watanabe Shinpei / hard sales: Tsumoto Yuichi

[Project Summary] Weathernews opened the in-house nursery "WNI RAIN KIDS HOUSE" with the aim of creating an environment where employees can balance childcare and their work. This in-house nursery was opened on the premises of Makuhari Techno Garden, where the company is located, with the aim of creating an environment where employees can work with peace of mind, and also has an after-school school that accepts children up to the sixth grade of elementary school. The "RAIN" in the name of the nursery also represents the company's wish that children will develop respectful, adventurous, and independent qualities. The company requested a unique space design that could express the concept, and an efficient functional development that can accommodate childcare of children of different ages, such as a nursery school and after-school room. The project members at our company are working fathers and mothers. We made use of our childcare experience to plan and design the names of each class and the educational programs. We pursued Weathernews' unique style in every detail, from the space expressing "RAIN" to the logo graphics and shapes, and worked with Team M to design and construction with consideration for safety and the environment. [Customer feedback] In order to create a facility unique to Weathernews, we discussed various themes and concepts within the company, but NOMURA was able to successfully shape it, including the process. For example, concept design and concept of the logo mark captured the hearts of the staff, and we were impressed with the idea of drawing a weather chart from the company's founding on the floor, so we adopted it. NOMURA made a wide range of proposals, and we were able to open a wonderful in-house nursery school that is unique to Weathernews.

<Project summary> A full-scale renovation was planned to address the decline in sales due to changes in the surrounding commercial environment, which arose as the facility infrastructure was due for renewal due to aging. The first large-scale renovation in 26 years was carried out by restructuring the MD taking advantage of the convenient location within the station, and unifying concept design image with a Japanese modern theme based on the renewal concept of "Hakata-like and new". We assisted with concept design, planning, construction and furniture and fixture manufacturing of the entire environment. <Customer feedback> The renewal concept was expressed through the greenery symbolized by Mining Square, the hanging wall concept design with a Hakata-ori motif, the different spatial presentation for each zone, the overlapping ceiling that gives an impression of "Japanese modern" and the warm interior lighting.

[Project summary] An interiors design project for a comprehensive medical and beauty building consisting of 12 floors. The interior concept design concept was "a 'movement' that people find comfortable," and by making use of the existing architecture and incorporating elements of movement such as "ripples in water," "moving light," and "sunlight filtering through the trees" into concept design, we established a new standard for medical facilities that is reminiscent of going to a high-quality SPA.

The Saga Prefectural Space Science Museum "Yumeginga" was established in 1999 as a communication facility that connects people and science. Since 2006, we have been the representative of the "designated manager" and are currently jointly managing it with Mavec Co., Ltd. The concept is "to develop children's scientific minds," "to convey the wonder of discovery and creation," and "to discover and recognize a comprehensive understanding of the universe, the Earth, and Saga, and their relationship with oneself." In addition to displays that enhance learning, we planned topical displays that can be enjoyed by tourists and disseminated nationwide. This facility has three zones: the "Saga Discovery Zone," the "Earth Discovery Zone," and the "Space Discovery Zone," and our company was in charge of all the zones when the museum opened. After a full renovation of the "Earth Discovery Zone" in the quarter century since its opening, we fully renovated the "Space Discovery Zone" in 2024. The concept of the renovation of the "Space Discovery Zone," where there are as many exciting things in space as there are stars, is "a long journey into space." The two perspectives of space science, which seeks to understand what the universe is, and space activities, which are humanity's attempt to pioneer the universe, are linked under the theme of "life." The displays space depicts on a grand scale where our life originates, where it is headed, and how it is related to the universe. We also aimed to create displays experience that makes visitors feel closer to the universe and broadens their perspective, leading to two existing zones on another floor.

[Project Summary] Tokyo Station, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in December 2014, has continued to develop and record its history together with the Marunouchi area, one of Japan's leading business districts. The development of the Marunouchi Plaza in front of Tokyo Station and redevelopment of the surrounding area are also underway, and the station is evolving toward the next new 100 years. In 2015, the Tokyo Michi Terrace 2015, a celebration of light to illuminate the future, was held in the Marunouchi area of Tokyo, the central district of Japan, with the hope of brightening the future. We assisted with the special lighting of the Marunouchi building of Tokyo Station in "traditional Japanese colors" and the light promenade on Gyoko-dori Street. In the light promenade, visitors were enveloped in light through the illumination of sculptures and lit-up trees, and the integrated production with the station building created a high-quality and elegant space suitable for the gateway to Japan. In a survey on light-ups/illuminations conducted by the Japan Event Industry Promotion Association on February 10, 2016, the special light-up at the Marunouchi Station Building of Tokyo Station was chosen as the number one light-up/illumination event people would like to see in the future.

[Project summary] The Osaka International Peace Center has been renovated for the first time in 25 years with the aim of communicating the history of war and the importance of life, with the theme of "thinking together, creating the future together." Based on the idea of "opening the door to a better future while looking back on history" from the perspectives of "past, present and future," we concept design displays that "resonates with the heart" so that the concept of "peace" can be intuitively conveyed to young people and children who will carry the future. We assisted with the basic concept, design, layout, construction and construction supervision.
