Sendai Aoba Festival "Borrowful Harvest Platform"

Sendai Aoba Festival "Borrowful Harvest Platform"

The zelkova trees lining the streets are covered in fresh greenery, transforming Sendai into the most beautiful "City of Forests" in May. The Sendai Aoba Festival, a period festival showcasing the "stylishness of the Date clan," is held in May. This festival began in 1985, marking the 350th anniversary of the death of Date Masamune, as a revival of a festival held in the Sendai domain during the Edo period. The fourth festival, held in 1988, saw the creation of five Sendai Yamaboko floats, recreating the traditional Yamaboko procession. Five more were added the following year, and another was created in 1995, bringing the total to eleven. Our Tohoku Branch was involved in the creation of the floats from the early stages, and thanks to that connection, all branch staff continue to support the procession every year. In 2025, the 12th Yamaboko, the "Borrowful Harvest Yamaboko," will be added to the festival for the first time in 30 years. Creating a new Yamahoko requires a considerable amount of money. Furthermore, it requires the participation of more than 100 people, including the pullers and dancers, so the sponsor must be a fairly large local organization or group. In this situation, the new Yamahoko was realized with the cooperation of Iris Ohyama, which is based in Sendai, Miyagi. Our company has a long-standing relationship with the Sendai Aoba Festival, and was in charge of the concept design and production work. *Dates: 2 days, the third Sunday of May every year and the day before.

Sendai City Science Museum permanent displays "ATGC Nano Journey"

Sendai City Science Museum permanent displays "ATGC Nano Journey"

The Tohoku University Tohoku Medical Megabank Organization (ToMMo), which aims to restore regional medical care from the damage caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake and to build new medical care that can respond to large-scale information technology, is building a biobank that combines medical information and genome information. Until now, the differences between people who take the same medicine for the same disease and those who do not have been explained by vague words such as "constitution" because the details have not been clarified. However, since the completion of the human genome decoding, it has gradually become clear that small individual differences in genome sequence can create differences in "constitution". ToMMo has been conducting cohort surveys in Tohoku since 2013, in which many people provide various information and biological samples such as blood, and has also developed a genetic analysis tool called "Japonica Array®" that can analyze Japanese genome information with high accuracy and low cost. In order to create the next generation of medical care, it is necessary to collect even larger amounts of data with the cooperation of a wide range of generations. To raise awareness of such activities, ToMMo has set up a permanent displays in the "Life and Science - Wonder Science Room" on the third floor of the Sendai City Science Museum. Our company is in charge of planning and concept design displays. To make it easy for everyone to understand, we will introduce cells and genomes through story-based graphics and touch panel games in which visitors shrink and travel inside the human body, and introduce the next-generation medical care that ToMMo aims to provide, tailored to each individual. It also expresses a message to many people: "You are one of a kind in the world, so cherish your differences."

Ishikawa Takuboku Memorial Museum and Morioka City Tamayama History and Folklore Museum

Ishikawa Takuboku Memorial Museum and Morioka City Tamayama History and Folklore Museum

The Ishikawa Takuboku Memorial Museum, which opened in 1970 with the aim of honoring and preserving the records of Ishikawa Takuboku, one of the most representative poets of modern Japan, will reopen in 2025 with the addition of the Tamayama History and Folklore Museum. The two museums are connected by the concept of the word "hometown" left by Takuboku, and the Takuboku Memorial Museum focuses on the Meiji period when Takuboku lived, while the History and Folklore Museum focuses on the 1950s and 1960s, allowing visitors to see the current Tamayama. The entire space of the Ishikawa Takuboku Memorial Museum is used to depict the 26 years of Takuboku's life and the people's activities to honor him from his death to the present day as a huge timeline. Below the timeline, you can see the collections for each era and Takuboku's words from that time. The central symbolic displays displays the organ that Takuboku actually played, and on the large screen in the background, you can choose to watch two original animations, "Takuboku's Life" and "Takuboku and Hometown." There is also a special displays room and a book browsing corner. Tamayama History and Folklore Museum displays folklore materials donated by local residents, as well as folk performing arts and natural scenes, which are preserved and can be viewed using video and information search systems. In the corridor connecting the two buildings, there is a multipurpose hall where lectures and workshops can be held, a shelf displays called "Tamayama Connecting" where mini special displays can be held, and a "visible storage room" where part of the storage room is made of glass. From the windows, you can see the Saito Family Residence where Takuboku once lived, and Shibutani Elementary School.

Takekoma Forest Revitalization Project

Takekoma Forest Revitalization Project

This project was undertaken by Takekoma Shrine, one of Japan's three major Inari shrines, to create a lively atmosphere in the local community. Our company acted as the hub, forming a team that united the shrine, the local community, and the company. The team worked on five main areas: "development of the shrine forest," "installation of a cafe," "vitalization of the local community," "promotion," and "creating a new festival." Our company was responsible for the overall production of the project, including planning, logo concept design, design administration, landscaping concept design, construction, exterior construction, cafe opening support, cafe menu development, product development, video production, and PR. Our goal was to ensure that Takekoma Shrine would continue to be an indispensable part of the lives of the local residents and be passed on to the future in a sustainable way. ○ Contents of comprehensive production ① Extraction of customer issues ② Proposal of solutions to those issues ③ Consideration of implementation (operation) system ④ Creation of implementation (operation) system (leasing) ⑤ concept design based on opinions of the shrine and operators ⑥ Product development (food and drink menu, selection of products for sale) ⑦ Consideration of revitalization of the shrine as a whole ⑧ Creation of a promotional video for the entire shrine ⑨ Consideration of CAFÉ promotion ⑩ Opening ceremony planning ⑪ Attracting various media ⑫ Implementing PDCA after opening ⑬ Create a new festival ⑭ Global promotional video for overseas By seeking supporters from our network (mainly local companies), we were able to create a system that can operate independently.

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.
