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 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.

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.
