The Sumitomo Pavilion at the 2025 World Exposition, Osaka, Japan (Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai) is a pavilion where visitors can experience a magnificent "Story of Life" set in the "Unknown Forest." Lanterns in hand, visitors of all ages can wander freely through the forest, experiencing the interconnectedness of life that is invisible in everyday life. Light and mist change in response to visitors' movements, revealing the "Story of Life" in nature, including trees conversing underground, the centuries-old life cycle of trees, and the animals and fungi that lurk in the forest. A theater deep in the forest depicts the journey and fragments of memory of Mother Tree, who has watched over the forest from its birth to its final moments. The wind and mist drifting through the space stir visitors' senses, culminating in a powerful performance that combines layered images, music, and people. After the forest experience, visitors can tour the "Seeds of the Future" area, which displays over 700 cutting-edge technologies and initiatives from the Sumitomo Group and connects to a platform that utilizes generative AI, allowing anyone to create and share ideas for the future. The Sumitomo Pavilion was built using approximately 1,000 cedar and cypress trees planted in 1970, the year of the Osaka Expo. In addition to their experience in "Unknown Forest," visitors can also participate in a "tree-planting experience" where they can come into contact with seedlings and soil, and the newly grown seedlings will be returned to their original forest. The "story of life" will continue even after the Expo and be passed on to the next generation.

As part of the renovation of the South Building of Tamagawa Takashimaya Shopping Center in Tamagawa, Setagaya Ward, the louvers covering the walls were removed and the existing multi-story garden was opened to the public, with the aim of creating a lively atmosphere as a commercial facility and increasing the three-dimensional flow of the entire town, including surrounding related facilities. An LED cube was inserted into the facade so that it appears to float, and can be seen from the west exit of Futako Tamagawa Station, the pedestrian deck, the intersection, and the entire street along National Route 246. By adding various places to see and be seen within the cubic frame, the expression and flow of the entire town were recreated in collaboration with digital content, rather than just the facility itself, and the flow of the entire town was recreated. We were responsible for working drawings and construction of the LED equipment.

We have newly built a conference room and waiting lounge space for recruitment interviews in NOMURA Co.,Ltd. Head Office office building.

The Mitsui O.S.K. Lines Museum Funeshiru, located at Osaka Nanko ATC, where the Sunflower ferry connecting Osaka and Kyushu is docked, is the first museum to be developed by this leading shipping company, with a history spanning over 140 years, and a desire to allow many people to experience the world of ships that support people's daily lives. Based on the concept of a museum where visitors can see, touch, and play with the ships that support our lives, the museum aims to provide a place where people of all ages can enjoy learning about how shipping supports people's daily lives and how ships are constantly evolving. The museum's space and experiences are designed to be child-friendly and exciting, with a large panoramic theater that allows visitors to experience the scale of ships and the ocean, and interactive displays that allow visitors to learn about jobs related to ships and shipping. Inspired by the image of a port where food transported across the sea is gathered, the museum also features a cafe serving original curry and a shop selling original goods unique to a museum dedicated to ships and shipping.

This project marks the first "Real x Tech LAWSON" store, which opened within KDDI's new Head Office. The store utilizes AI and DX technologies. In addition to developing the basic concept design for the new store, our Content Integration Center (CIC) leveraged its expertise in utilizing technology to propose and produce various ideas for utilizing AI and DX technologies. The store also incorporates sustainability initiatives, such as reusing discarded uniforms worn by Lawson store staff for flooring and discarded clothing for panels. The in-store signage, linked to the "Urban OS" data platform that collects, analyzes, and utilizes various urban data, displays information on weather, train delays, congestion, and events. Other features include a "cleaning robot" that roams the store, AI cameras that display recommended products based on customer behavior (such as reaching) in front of shelves, and a "Ponta General Consultation Center" that offers solutions to everyday problems. The store is packed with new initiatives aimed at making convenience stores an integral part of the city's infrastructure.

This project involved the "Lawson S KDDI Takanawa Head Head Office Store," a cashierless experimental store opened on the employee-only floor of Head Office 's new headquarters. Our Content Integration Center (CIC) utilized its high level of expertise and experience in utilizing technology to support the system construction for the store's concept design construction. Since users are limited to KDDI employees, the "Office Lawson App" was adopted, allowing payments without waiting in line at the cash register, creating a store that provides value that leads to increased productivity for office workers. Delivery robots were also introduced, allowing for mobile sales within the office. The robots use elevators to move between floors, allowing customers to purchase products without having to stop in the store, making this a truly "testing ground for the future."

Osaka Prefecture and Osaka City, hosting the Osaka-Kansai Expo, are exhibiting at the "Osaka Healthcare Pavilion Nest for Reborn," a joint collaboration between industry, academia, and the public sector. As the lead displays joint venture, we were responsible for the master plan, schematic design, working drawings, and construction. The basic concept of the pavilion was to "experience a life where future medical care and healthcare are ubiquitous, while also displays as an experiment in future society that will connect to a legacy." We expressed this concept through the future themes of "healthcare," "city," "food and culture," and "entertainment." The main program, the "Reborn Experience Route," allows visitors to measure their health data with a "Body Measurement Pod" and meet their 25-year-old selves. Together with this 25-year-old version of themselves, they can experience the future of healthcare and urban life envisioned by approximately 20 exhibiting companies, primarily from Osaka, and experience a rebirth of their future selves. This exhibition was created with the hope that it would inspire people to be reborn and take a new step towards a "future society where life shines." [Characteristics of the project] displays was created with the hope that it would inspire people to be reborn and take a new step towards a "future society where life shines." The hope was that it would inspire people to be reborn and take a new step towards a "future society where life shines."

The Panasonic Group Pavilion "Nomo no Kuni" is a pavilion based on the concept of "Unlock your nature" that draws out the potential of children through sensory analysis technology and experiences that stimulate the five senses. Utilizing the latest technology from Panasonic Holdings, we have achieved a spatial design that harmonizes with the worldview of "Nomo no Kuni" by using tiles that evoke the tactile sensation of walking on natural ground, natural wood finishes with metallic textures, and concept design techniques that combine with 3D printing. We adopted a spatial and experience concept design approach centered on what we can do for the future of children, incorporating cutting-edge design and construction methods in sustainability, such as reusable tiles and biodegradable concept design printing.

Thirty years have passed since the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, and as the number of generations who have not experienced the disaster increases, we have renovated the Kobe Port Earthquake Memorial Park, which was built in 1997 immediately after the disaster. By displays the remains preserved as they were at the time of the earthquake in contrast to the reconstructed city of Kobe, we symbolically convey the horror of the earthquake and the strength of the people of Kobe who reconstructed the city. In renovating displays displays, we reconstructed the content so that it is easy to understand for the younger generation who did not experience the earthquake, and we also translated displays graphics and videos into multiple languages for the increasing number of foreign tourists in recent years. As a new displays element, we also created AR content that allows you to compare the state of the remains before, during, and after the earthquake. We renovated the park with the aim of attracting many people from Japan and abroad, regardless of age, and continuing to be a place that passes on the memories and lessons of the earthquake to the future.

About 400 years ago, the first Osaka Castle built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi fell in the Summer Siege of Osaka and was buried underground by the Tokugawa Shogunate with a large amount of earth. This project aims to excavate the Toyotomi-era stone walls from the ground after 400 years, renovate them, and open them to the public. In a facility unlike any other in the country that allows visitors to go underground to view the remains, we worked on creating displays that conveys the unique value of Toyotomi-era stone walls, which are different from the stone walls rebuilt by the Tokugawa Shogunate. We created displays story and production that allows visitors to relive the process of identifying the Toyotomi-era stone walls, their characteristics, and the turbulent history that the stone walls have gone through. We also created displays space that feels even more special by overlapping it with the process of visiting the ruins, going from above ground to underground and back again. In addition, we valued the way the stone walls themselves were presented, and conveyed the original appeal of the remains through an integrated production that linked video, lighting, and sound.

We were in charge of the design and construction of the renovation work for the second factory building of Seiko Epson's Toyoshina Office in Nagano Prefecture. It is a co-creation space that visualizes and experiences the displays displays actual displays of projector products, and a LAB space that is equipped with a 25m extra-large screen and a 360-degree screen and can be used flexibly for various purposes.
