Fukui Station Area Dinosaur Expansion Project

Fukui Station Area Dinosaur Expansion Project

In preparation for the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen Fukui-Tsuruga line in spring 2024, Fukui Prefecture and Fukui City have launched the "Fukui Station Dinosaur Expansion Project" to promote "Fukui, the Kingdom of Dinosaurs" to visitors by placing various dinosaur displays around Fukui Station and to create a lively atmosphere using dinosaurs. Fukui City is in charge of the east exit area of Fukui Station, and has installed a parent-child Triceratops monument with the theme of parent-child love in the East Exit Plaza. The parent Triceratops is a life-sized dinosaur robot that expresses parent-child love by moving at regular times and making sounds. Meanwhile, the shelter area of Fukui Station is designed to evoke the world of land. You can interact with three baby dinosaurs, including a Spinosaurus, and the egg monument is a photo spot where you can enter and take photos. The adjacent pedestrian-only road is designed to evoke the world of the sky. There are benches for child dinosaurs who dream of becoming dinosaur researchers, as well as a sign reading "Pterosaur Conservation Area," and on the exterior wall of Echizen Railway Fukui Station facing the road ahead, a 20-meter-long herd of pteranodons is painted. Furthermore, under the elevated railway, an internally illuminated "Pterosaur Conservation Area" sign with a sea blue base and benches with a relief of the marine dinosaur Plesiosaurus have been installed to evoke the image of an underwater world. In this way, each area has its own theme, and the different sights to see make it easy to wander around.

Fukunuma Umino Square

Fukunuma Umino Square

The concept is "symbiosis". This is a project to establish an exchange base in the Arahama area of Sendai City, which was affected by the tsunami caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake. Based on the concept of an ``inclusive society'' where people of all generations and with or without disabilities can gather, we have created an ``open space'' where you can enjoy activities and events and learn about disaster prevention and mitigation. The site area is 1.3 hectares. The site consists of three areas: a cafe and co-working space, a farm, and an inclusive facility where children with disabilities can play. The clubhouse uses VR equipment jointly developed by a major telecommunications company and a local university to become a place for children to learn about disaster prevention, where they can learn about the Arahama area before and after the earthquake and how to respond in the event of a disaster. I am. The project is part of Sendai City's project to utilize the site of a disaster prevention collective relocation site, and is funded by a subsidy from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. Our company provided support for acquisition applications and completion reports. This time, we completed the clubhouse area as the first phase. Aiming to create facilities that take root in the community and grow together with them, parks and indoor facilities are planned to be developed in stages based on future projections in collaboration with local residents.

Hokkaido Ballpark F Village ES CON FIELD HOKKAIDO

Hokkaido Ballpark F Village ES CON FIELD HOKKAIDO

In March 2023, Hokkaido Ballpark F Village was born, an area including the new stadium of the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters. It is a completely new creative community space that aims to create a town with next-generation live entertainment that coexists with nature, wellness solutions that nurture the mind and body, and active cultural exchange within a vast site area of approximately 32 hectares. NOMURA pooled all its resources under the theme of "creating a new spectator experience that no one has ever experienced before," and was responsible for the planning, design, layout, production, and displays construction of multiple areas. In the main stadium, "ES CON FIELD HOKKAIDO," we created spaces including the "BALCONY SUITE" in the premium area, the "docomo CLUB LOUNGE" and "Panasonic CLUB LOUNGE" on both wings that combine sand-covered seats and dining, the unique "tower eleven hotel" with a panoramic view of the field from the guest rooms, and the world's first "tower eleven onsen & sauna" that pumps hot spring water. As mentioned above, the landmark "TOWER 11" located behind the left field of the new stadium is equipped with facilities such as the world's first onsen and sauna in a stadium, the first hotel in a stadium with a panoramic view of the field in Japan, and a museum, making it an innovative stadium that can be enjoyed all year round. For example, the world's first "onsen and sauna in a stadium with a panoramic view of the field" has 24 "Totonoe Terrace Seats" in the semi-outdoor swimsuit wearing zone, and you can watch the game from the sauna room and bathtub. Together with professional sauna user "TTNE Totonoe Oyakata" Matsuo Dai, we created a new and unprecedented style of watching games. As for "Hokkaido Ballpark F Village" as a whole, in addition to planning the entire outdoor area, we are also creating a welcome monument. We will continue to contribute to the "co-creation space" that the team aims to create, together with fans, partners, and local residents, which will lead to the revitalization of the local community and contribution to society.

Marunouchi Street Park 2022 Winter

Marunouchi Street Park 2022 Winter

"Marunouchi Street Park (MSP)" is a social experiment project to examine the future state and utilization of Nakadori in Marunouchi, Tokyo. "MSP 2022 Winter", which has been held for the seventh time since its launch in 2019, expanded the area from Marunouchi Nakadori to Gyoko-dori in front of Tokyo Station, making it the largest scale to date. We participated as a general planning partner and operation manager. The theme of this time is "MSP Twinkle Street". Block 1 in front of Maru Building is based on the theme of "Twinkle Party", and design, layout a Christmas market in collaboration with stores in the Otemachi, Marunouchi, and Yurakucho area, creating a winter festive space filled with heartwarming gimmicks such as merry-go-round benches, light quoits, and hot benches surrounding trees. Block 2 in front of the Marunouchi 2-chome Building was themed "Twinkle Terrace" and featured a popular street piano performance space, a spot to take photos with the illuminations in the background, and a long hot bench, creating a space where visitors could relax while enjoying the winter illuminations. And on Gyoko-dori in front of Tokyo Station, which was the first MSP event to be held, the "Marunouchi Street Rink," an environmentally friendly resin skating rink, was installed, allowing many visitors of all ages and genders to experience the appeal of skating outdoors, which was well received. (Event period: November 29, 2022 - December 25, 2022)

TheMana Village

TheMana Village

This project is being carried out by ARTH Group Co., Ltd. (Tosashimizu Resort LLC), a company involved in accommodation businesses and regional revitalization nationwide. The project aims to revitalize the entire city of Tosashimizu by revitalizing the long-established inn "Ashizuri Pacific Hotel Hanatsubaki," which has been loved for many years on Cape Ashizuri in Kochi Prefecture, as one of Asia's leading resort facilities for stays, "The Mana Village." The facility is located in the naturally rich area of Ashizuri-Uwakai National Park. Although it has a spectacular view, the hotel's old interiors remains as it was, as if time had stopped since the Showa era. Initially, the plan was to set up a small cafe area, but as the meetings continued, ARTH's vision of wanting to liven up not only the hotel but also the entire city of Kochi and Tosashimizu expanded. The project has been transformed into a complex that includes an Italian restaurant, providing a luxurious space where you can experience the nature of Ashizuri. We have been involved from the concept stage of planning and concept design the facility to improve its appeal, and have been in charge of producing the space for the facade, lobby common areas, guest rooms, and restaurant, which will be the face of the hotel. (design supervision for guest rooms and Italian restaurant) As ARTH's creative partner, we are involved in producing spaces that lead to the creation and revitalization of attractive urban areas, including ``LOQUAT Nishiizu'' (renovating an old Japanese house into an auberge), which we took on in 2021.
