東武鉄道の新型特急スペーシア Ｘの運行開始に合わせた、東武スカイツリーライン「浅草駅」・東武日光線「東武日光駅」のリニューアルプロジェクトです。このプロジェクトは、「つなぐ」をコンセプトとしており、スペーシア Ｘに乗る前から降りた後までの空間につながりを持たせることを目的としました。また、”つなぐ”というコンセプトには、「日光の旅へと”つなぐ”」、「新旧の駅舎デザインを”つなぐ”」、「沿線地域の歴史や文化を未来へと”つなぐ”」、「創り手の技術や想いを使い手へと”つなぐ”」など、いくつかの意味を重ねています。 “つなぐ”を体現する駅舎デザインとして、栃木県産材の積極的な活用や、日光の自然や歴史文化からひもといたモチーフをデザインに取り入れ、東武鉄道の新たな取り組みとしての“環境保全”や沿線地域の“文化発信”も目指しています。また、その取り組みを伝えるために、“つなぐ”を題材としたグラフィックポスターの制作も当社が担当し、浅草駅・東武日光駅の駅構内に展示しました。

The interior concept design was handled by a Hong Kong-based concept design company, and our company was in charge of the local design work, which required a highly challenging design by an overseas designer, as well as construction work, which required a high level of perfection.

This is a renewal project for the Seibu Railway's Toshimaen Station and Ikebukuro Station in conjunction with the opening of Studio Tour Tokyo (Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo – The Making of Harry Potter), which was built on the site of the former Toshimaen. ■Toshimaen Station Based on the concept of "a station where imagination blends into everyday life," the station building has a simple concept design that resembles a gate connecting the everyday and extraordinary spaces, with added features that allow you to feel the magical world. The pillars on the platform, station signs, vending machines, etc. have been renovated to a red-based design reminiscent of Hogsmeade Station, which leads to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In addition, the glass surface at the top of the facade is used to display see-through LED images that change depending on the time of day and season, creating a floating, magical atmosphere. In addition, as a legacy of Toshimaen, which closed in August 2020, model trains, telephone booth objects, benches, and objects made from wood grown within Toshimaen have been remade to fit a new concept and are now on displays, making the station a beloved destination among local residents. ■ Ikebukuro Station Based on King's Cross Station in London, England, the walls of platforms 1 and 2, where trains to Toshimaen mainly depart and arrive, have been renovated to a brick style, and the station sign has also been renovated to a navy blue color scheme. Based on the concept of "a road to a fantasy world," a magical worldview has been created by applying illustrations of wizards and owls throughout the station, making it a gateway to the magical world.

Tochigi Health Check Plaza is a medical facility that relocated and opened on January 15, 2024 for health checkups and medical examinations. In today's world, where people are expected to live to 100 years old, health management through regular health checkups and medical examinations is more important than ever. In order to realize the wishes of many patients that their annual medical examination day be a "rich and special day," we have created a space full of hospitality, from architecture to interior and furniture concept design. In order to respond to customer requests and a wide range of concept design areas, we teamed up with NAU (now the Architectural Production Department), which specializes in total concept design on an urban planning and architectural scale, and an interior concept design team that specializes in the hospitality market, such as hotels. By utilizing each other's expertise and concept design everything from the architectural scale to the human scale, we were able to ease the psychological anxiety of patients and create a space where they can spend their time comfortably and comfortably. With a smart appearance symbolizing a cutting-edge medical facility and a space filled with elegant colors, we aimed to create a facility that would take root in the local community and be beloved as a symbol of the town.

"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.

NOMURA Co.,Ltd. exhibited a booth at the "SC Business Fair 2024," the largest event in the shopping center industry, bringing together all involved. The event was held at the Pacifico Yokohama displays Hall for three days, from January 24 to 26, 2024. In addition to exhibiting at our booth, we also hosted a free seminar on the first day of the event. The theme of our booth this time was "NOMURA Co.,Ltd. 's Approach to Sustainable concept design." As part of our social good R&D activities, we are currently working on creating a "Sustainable concept design Etiquette Book" that achieves aesthetics, functionality, and environmental friendliness. Our booth was designed in accordance with the book's basic principles. As sustainability initiatives become more diverse, we are also continuing to take on various challenges, such as developing upcycled materials. However, this time, we focused on understanding the characteristics of basic materials, which are essential for creating spaces and will continue to be deeply involved in the future. The basic materials used were wood, cement, acrylic, copper, and steel. Each timber was arranged in a grid pattern, creating undulating spaces that encouraged visitors to wander and enjoy conversation. The proportion of each material used was calculated based on the embodied carbon emissions over the building's lifecycle, allowing visitors to visually appreciate the material's characteristics. Furthermore, clamps* were used instead of screws or adhesives to join the pieces, enabling secondary reuse of materials and dramatically reducing waste during demolition, symbolizing the essential concept of contributing to the environment. Our goal was to concept design a booth that would encourage visitors to consider future approaches to sustainable concept design, while demonstrating responsibility and gratitude for materials and fostering new insights and discoveries. *We have used clamps specifically designed for the "Tsunagi" project, planned and produced by Nikken Sekkei.

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.

This is an open innovation hub newly established in Marunouchi, Tokyo in September 2022 by Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company with the aim of creating new value through collaboration and cooperation with external parties. In addition to private companies such as startups and large corporations, it is used as a place for collaboration and cooperation with local governments, governments, universities, research institutions, and others. interiors concept design of the space expresses "intersection and expansion" throughout, so that the keyword of the hub, "collaboration and collaboration," can always be felt. In addition, in order to flexibly respond to various speedy working styles, including agile development, the furniture and fixtures are movable, but by placing comfortable sofas in the same space, the boundaries between on and off are intentionally blurred, and the entire space is coordinated to generate communication in various situations and help create ideas.

This project aims to improve the appeal of Kanazawa crafts in the Tokyo metropolitan area and strengthen its ability to convey the message. It relocates and opens "Dining Gallery Ginza no Kanazawa," which was located on the sixth floor of a commercial facility, as a full-scale crafts gallery on the street in Ginza 5-chome. Utilizing the brand power that has been cultivated thus far, we will create a new stage that connects Kanazawa with the world, culture and business, tradition and innovation, and convey the appeal of Kanazawa crafts to the world, while also nurturing young craft artists.

The Realize Group, which develops various businesses, mainly in the fund business, has established a new company called SUUTA, which operates a rental platform. SUUTA aims to shift all things from "consumption" to "recycling," proposing a light lifestyle of "living without possessions" from the user's perspective, while from the seller's perspective, it conveys a new value in which everything you own can become an investment target.

This is an displays concept design project for the comprehensive retail trade fair "JAPAN SHOP 2024" held at Tokyo Big Sight. We were in charge of design, layout, and construction of the entire booth for Lilycolor Co., Ltd. This year's theme was "Sustainable x Experiential Material Search for Design Decision Makers." In addition to seeing Lilycolor's "sustainable products," including new wallpaper and flooring products made from recycled waste, we also scattered points throughout the exhibit where visitors could "experience" the products themselves, by actually touching them and checking their texture and comfort. As a company that deals with interior materials, we aimed to create a booth that could be experienced in three dimensions, including the comfort of the space and the image of the actual space.

Square JS is a complex owned by Nippon Sosei Life. At Square JS, we use a thermographic camera to capture and record the differences in thermal insulation properties of living rooms that vary depending on materials and construction methods, and we conduct the "Thermo Experiment displays" to apply it to future living spaces. This facility attracts many customers, such as apartment complex management companies, housing supply corporations, and local government officials, based on the keyword "housing complex." However, due to the technical nature of displays's content, it was difficult to gain a full understanding of the facility. Therefore, through this video, we show that the thermal environment of living rooms has improved due to changes in times, construction methods, and materials, and then tour the actual space so that the complex contents of displays can be understood smoothly. < Video Story >Showa 40's. An inquisitive elementary school student, Manabu learned about the thermal insulation of living rooms from his father Kiyoshi, the architect of the housing complex, and became interested in future research and improved spaces. Then, the space is twisted, and you are transported back to 202 X! Kiyo is very excited about the future space. In learning, the temperature of the living room changes depending on the material and construction method. When he returned to the Showa period, his mother Keiko prepared meals and waited for them to return. They enjoyed the family reunion, imagining the future that would come to Gaku one day.
