Works#Regional revitalization

HOKURIKU+ is an information hub for Toyama, Ishikawa, and Fukui. It is directly connected to the west exit of JR Osaka Station and features a sales space, a standing bar space where you can enjoy local sake and snacks from each prefecture, a tourist information space, and an event space that showcases the seasons. In addition to design, layout planning to construction phases, we were also in charge of the logo and its manual, the carefully crafted store introduction video, and the VMD (visual merchandising) proposal for the first year of opening.

A private park called "AKICHIDE PARK" was opened on a vacant lot in Nagano Shopping Street, Kawachinagano City, Osaka Prefecture, in cooperation with the local community, government and companies, with the aim of restoring the area's former bustle and enriching the lives of each and every citizen. As part of our R&D activities, we agreed with the purpose of this project and participated in the Kawachinagano Station Front Regeneration Conference as a partner company. In preparation for the opening of AKICHIDE PARK, we were actively involved in a wide range of processes, including planning and basic concept, spatial design supervision, sponsorship, and event planning and management cooperation, while also working with other partner companies to revitalize the park even after it opened.

The "Jeddah Events Calendar" (JEC) is an entertainment event held in Jeddah, the second city of Saudi Arabia in the Middle East, as part of a national strategy. In addition to live music performances by world-class artists, attractions such as roller coasters, and a variety of restaurants and shops, one of the main attractions for the event is the "Anime Village," which promotes Japanese culture, including Japanese anime and manga, which are extremely popular in the country. Together with Avex Asia Pte. Ltd., we were responsible for everything from the initial planning to the overall project management, concept design, planning, software production, and on-site design supervision.

As part of vitalization business for the redevelopment of Senri Central Park, we renovated the architecture, interiors, and landscape of the former park management office, and planned a facility that would be thought up and created together with local residents about Senri Central Park. Based on the concept of PLAY 1OOORE SCENES' "three O's" (Open, Ordinary, Organic), our company is involved in the design, layout, construction, and operation of the park vitalization business project "SEN℃," a cafe where visitors can enjoy the unique experience of the park, the mini-shop "PARK LAWSON Senri Store," and the community space "LABO." As part of our efforts with local residents, we held and operated events such as "Find a Color, Make a Color" and "Paint the Whole Building," where we colored the exterior walls of the lab building with colors found in the park, creating value that can only be found here.

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 in ocean blue tones and a bench with a relief of the marine dinosaur Plesiosaurus are installed, evoking 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.

"Marunouchi Street Park" has been running in Tokyo's Marunouchi Nakadori since 2019 as a demonstration experiment of future area management that transforms "road space" into a comfortable "urban park space." Based on the concept of "Popping Summer Street - Marunouchi Nakadori where visitors can feel the summer and get excited," verification items included collaboration with initiatives that are in line with the times and trends, such as rugby and SDGs, setting up tables equipped with wind and solar power generation capabilities, and creating a venue for musical performances that involves local workers and visitors.

The main building is a historical entertainment facility with the theme of Maebashi's "crisis and people's power." Maebashi was called the "flower of Kanto" during the Edo period and flourished as a castle town, and continued to develop as the prefectural capital of Gunma Prefecture after the Meiji period. During that time, however, our ancestors overcame four crises with the "people's power" and achieved reconstruction: the collapse of Maebashi Castle due to erosion of the Tone River, the abolition of feudal domains and the establishment of prefectures due to the Meiji Restoration, the suspension of operations in the silk industry, which was the city's main industry, due to the Great Depression, and the burning of 80% of the city area in air raids during World War II. The main building calls Maebashi, which developed as the "flower of Kanto" and the "prefectural capital," "the Flower Capital," and was opened with the hope that it would be an opportunity for citizens to trace the history of their hometown and think about Maebashi's future.

Amu Plaza Nagasaki Shinkan is a new large-scale commercial facility planned to open in November 2023 in conjunction with the opening of the West Kyushu Shinkansen. As the land gateway to Nagasaki, an international tourist city, it will create new liveliness and interaction. We participated in the planning and development phase from the supervision of the architectural plan, and were in charge of the environment of the commercial zone design, layout and construction (in part), following "Nagasaki Kaido Kamome Ichiba".

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.

This is a community revitalization and disaster prevention base that was born in Koshimizu Town, Hokkaido, and is a community revitalization and disaster prevention base that has been working in partnership with the public and public, with the aim of creating a lively and sustainable town by creating a place for people to live both in everyday life and in times of disaster. In addition to the town hall functions, the town hall will be equipped with a cafe, laundry, fitness gym, community space, etc., transforming the town hall from a traditional "place you don't go to unless you have something to do" to a new "place you come to naturally." We aim to become a central facility where the town hall and residents can work together to revitalize the town while facing the challenges of depopulation and aging.

This is a development and demonstration event of Motome Beach in Kyonan Town, Awa District, Chiba Prefecture, utilizing Chiba Prefecture's "Tourism Content High Added Value Promotion Project". We named the new use of the beach after the summer high season "Beach Time" and planned and implemented the project from September to November 2022. The special event held on November 12th and 13th offered new seaside experiences such as the first and largest participatory sky lantern and candle night in the Uchibo region, the installation of upcycled art using local waste materials such as driftwood, and a gourmet food truck that allows you to taste the charm of Uchibo, and many people attended. We promoted a series of efforts, from secretarial work for the application to Chiba Prefecture, planning, promoting the demonstration experiment of the event (planning, concept design, construction, operation, promotion), verifying the effects, and reporting.

We have created an application that allows visitors to learn more about the past and present of Tsumakoi Village. The application allows visitors to experience the past and present of Tsumagoi Village at three locations: "Asama no Ibuki," a direct sales shop selling Tsumagoi Village's specialties; "Kambara Kannondou," where human remains from the 1783 eruption were excavated; and "Tsumagoi Local History Museum," which has materials from the time of the eruption at displays. -The AR contents can be played by holding a tablet over the present Mt. Asama and experiencing the eruption in 1783 and the changes in the ridgelines of Mt. The detailed information is explained with illustrations. -Learn about Tsumagoi Village today - You can see the traces of the eruption that are currently being excavated, the four seasons of Tsumagoi Village, and explanations of the village's local specialties. The 360-degree images of the rhododendron garden in the spring and the star-filled sky in the summer can be enjoyed as if the visitors were actually there.

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, which 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 in-stadium hot spring and sauna, Japan's first in-stadium hotel with a panoramic view of the field, and a museum, making it an innovative stadium that can be enjoyed all year round. For example, the world's first "in-stadium natural hot spring and sauna 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" Dai Matsuo, 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.

This project involved relocating and rebuilding the museum that opened in Matsumoto Castle Park in 1948 due to its aging. We were in charge of everything from formulating the basic concept for displays space to design, layout, and construction. The first floor is an open space open to citizens and tourists, and the museum was built as a proactive part of the urban development of Matsumoto City.

"Marunouchi Street Park (MSP)" is a social experiment project to examine the future state and utilization of Nakadori in Marunouchi, Tokyo. "MSP 2022 Winter", the seventh event since its launch in 2019, expanded its area from Marunouchi Nakadori to Gyoko-dori in front of Tokyo Station, making it the largest event ever. We participated as a general planning partner and operation manager. The theme of this event 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 plastic 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)
