The Showa-kan is a national facility that preserves the memories of the war experienced by the Japanese people during the Showa era, and collects, displays, and exhibits historical materials and information related to the lives of the people of that time, passing on their struggles to future generations. It features displays themed on "The lives of the Japanese people throughout the pre-war, wartime, and post-war periods." This project is a renewal of the epilogue, "Life in the Showa Era - A 1950s Experience Area," which has been developed in stages since the basic plan was established in 2023. This era, from post-war displays to the period of high economic growth, is filled with bright and exciting attractions, along with the nostalgia of Showa retro. displays space consists of a recreated house and an alleyway, designed to resemble an "electronics store" in a shopping district. The electronics store is lavishly lined with the "three sacred treasures" of various companies, which were the most coveted home appliances of the time. Numerous posters pasted on the wooden fence offer a glimpse into the social conditions and culture of the time. The alley leads to the backyard and veranda of an electrician's shop, where you can experience water-related chores from before the age of electricity through hand pump and hand-cranked washing machine simulations. The kamishibai storyteller in the square is performing the very popular "Golden Bat." When you hold up your smartphone to the silhouette panels of the electrician's family (father, mother, and child), they will tell you about their lives from the 1950s.

Opened in 1979, the Toyama City Science Museum explores the diverse natural environment of Toyama from a scientific perspective.

This renovation was the first medium-scale renovation in approximately 20 years since the full-scale renovation that our company was in charge of in 2007. The main geology displays room introduces the formation of Toyama's land and the history of life through numerous rock and fossil specimens. While retaining the appeal of the existing displays, new sections were added, including "Toyama's Land Masterpieces," "Toyama Field Map," "3.5 Billion Years of Life History," and the complete skeleton of the Ankylosaurus dinosaur, "Gastonia burgei." displays displays intuitively convey the charm of Toyama's land and nature, connect life, the land, and nature, and deepen displays through video and digital technology.

Nankai Electric Railway Co., Ltd. has reconstructed the common meeting room area of Parks Tower, an office building adjacent to Namba Parks in Osaka, as the "PARKS PATIO" lounge for employees. The space is designed as a "special backyard for workers" in response to the lush greenery of Parks Garden, the symbol of Namba Parks. As a place that workers use on a daily basis, we have created an environment that accommodates not only meetings and work, but also various ways of spending time, such as taking a break or changing one's mind. Through a worker-participatory production process, artwork using plants in the garden, and sound effects that incorporate the environmental sounds of the rail line, we aim to enhance the overall value of the office building and the worker experience, while incorporating a space for physical and mental conditioning within the convenience of the city.

The renovation of the first and second floors of Barneys New York's Ginza flagship store was based on the concepts of "memory" and "creation." The goal was to create a space that respects the brand's long-standing traditions (memory) while generating new value (creation). While utilizing existing fixtures such as muted wood-grain walls and niches, the design combines sustainable materials, materials that blend naturally into existing finishes, and unique, symbolic fixtures to create a fusion of timeless sophistication and provocative humor. The watch workshop at the back of the first floor was designed as a "visible customer service" space, and a semi-private meeting space with a private feel enhances the experience during the visit. Furthermore, the newly installed cafe counter was designed to be visible from the outside, aiming to attract new customers. Proceeding to the second floor, connected via the central staircase, mirrored walls at different angles are installed to bring the entire floor into view, creating a symbolic look. Furthermore, a display was placed in front of the vintage area at the back to enhance attraction and traffic flow. Within a short construction period and limited budget, we proactively repurposed existing fixtures and quickly verified them using point cloud data, resulting in a solid concept design proposal. The project created an iconic, luxurious space that is uniquely Barneys, preserving tradition while pioneering the future.
