急速な発展を見せるインドネシア・ジャカルタの人工島Pantai Indah Kapuk（PIK）の中心に位置する自然公園における、“% ARABICA”としてアジア圏初となるドライブスループロジェクトです。2つの異なる建築が交わり合うような構成とし、1つの建築はラウンド型のガラスファサードと極限まで削ぎ落した構造により開放感と視角的な広がりと抜け具合を追求しながら、外部からは店内のにぎわいを感じられるオープンな空間となっています。対して、もう1つの建築はマッシブなつくりにプライバシーと設備機能を配置したクローズドな空間となっており、それぞれの建築の役割を明確に整理しています。円芯から外に向かって、焙煎室、コーヒーカウンター、客席と放射状のレイアウトにすることで、焙煎やサーブを主役としながらもバリスタは店内全体を見渡すことができます。一方でゲストからの視線は自然と外の景色へと向かうように設えたことで、それぞれの視線が適度に合わないように配慮され、360度パノラマビューによる緑豊かな自然公園を眺めながらコーヒーを楽しめる特別な時間を提供できています。

The Aichi Sogyokan was newly established on the second floor of STATION Ai, a startup support center developed by Aichi Prefecture. Since ancient times, many entrepreneurs have been active in Aichi Prefecture and developed the industry. In order to understand what kind of encounters and ideas they had, and how they overcame adversity and created innovation, we aimed to create an exhibition that would provide hints for the future for those who will start their own businesses and the children of the next generation through encounters with the beliefs, spirit of challenge, and vision of entrepreneurs, and provide a timeless ``!'' encounter that stimulates creativity. The museum is divided into four zones, and a wide range of information is introduced, from the roots of Aichi's industry to the challenges of many entrepreneurs with ties to Aichi. By creating displays experiential displays that makes full use of digital technology such as video and AI, we provide a learning experience that is both sensual and touching to the heart for everyone from children to adults. In addition to the digital displays, we have also set up a library of books selected to be linked to the content of this facility. With the intention of leading these various displays contents, which combine digital and analog, beyond time and space into the future, we have realized a flexible, streamlined spatial concept design by incorporating the three elements that created Aichi - wood, water, and earth - into the spatial components.

Located on the first floor of the "YKK AP30 Building," which was built to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the founding of YKK AP, the Philosophy Hall is a place where you can experience the philosophy and history of YKK AP. While incorporating elements that are characteristic of YKK AP, such as aluminum, glass, curtains, and light, the communication style of the company culture, "sitting in a circle, talking, and providing hospitality," was incorporated and visualized in the spatial composition. In displays, we used symbolic displays techniques reminiscent of aluminum extrusion technology, contrasts of light and shadow, and immersive video production to convey the philosophy and the commitment and thoughts that have been put into the products through everything that can be touched and seen. Rather than a one-way information transmission, we appealed to emotions by expressing it in an artistic displays method that embodies the philosophy of "Architectural Products," which combines technology and beauty, and concept design the information as a medium that would allow employees to speak in their own words and deepen understanding and relationships with business partners. We aimed to create a place where all visitors could experience YKK AP's philosophy, empathize with its thoughts and values, and build trusting relationships as partners.

This is a social experiment project to observe how people spend time in outdoor spaces at Nakadori, Marunouchi, Tokyo, and to consider the future of roadways and sidewalks. In the summer of 2024, we tried to gently define the way people gather by manipulating the shape, and to explore comfort. The concept is "i-ma-i." We gave shape to the furniture through geometric manipulation, such as a square movable block bench, a long big table with gradually changing face-to-face distances, a round bench that combines concentration and diffusion, and a bollard-utilizing bench that combines the roadway and sidewalk with handrails, and wrapped it in a way that resonates with the materials of the surrounding environment. Because it is an eventful product, variables need to be taken into account before it can be made permanent, but we were able to demonstrate a new way of gathering. (Date of event: July 25, 2024 - August 18, 2024)
