Located within the Osaka Healthcare Pavilion at the 2025 Japan International Exposition (Osaka-Kansai Expo), this space allows visitors to see a real myocardial sheet made from iPS cells up close. The symbolic sculpture, based on the motif of a "tree" growing from a seed (iPS cell) into a large tree, represents the global progress of research and development since the discovery of iPS cells and the advancement of science and technology. Within the "tree," a giant heart model moves in sync with the beating of displays myocardial sheet, and the resounding heartbeats and video projections throughout the atrium express a future of health through the advancement of regenerative medicine.

The "Osaka Healthcare Pavilion Nest for Reborn," a joint venture between Osaka Prefecture and Osaka City, the host cities of the Osaka-Kansai Expo, brings together industry, academia, government, and the private sector. As the lead company in displays joint venture, our company was responsible for everything from basic planning and schematic design to working drawings and construction. The basic concept was "displays that allows visitors to experience a life where future medicine and healthcare are integrated, and that will also serve as an experiment for future society, creating a legacy," which was expressed through the future of "healthcare," "cities," "food and culture," and "entertainment." In the main program, the "Reborn Experience Route," visitors can meet their future selves 25 years from now by measuring their health data in a "body measurement pod." Together with this future self, they can experience the future of healthcare and urban life envisioned by approximately 20 exhibiting companies, mainly from Osaka, and have the experience of being reborn as their future self. displays embodies our hope that it will serve as a catalyst for a "future society where life shines," showing that "people can be reborn" and "take a new step forward." [Features of the project] We were able to realize this by bringing together the aspirations of the general producer, advisors, exhibiting companies, and many other stakeholders, with the hope that it will serve as a catalyst for a "future society where life shines," showing that "people can be reborn" and "take a new step forward."

This is a trial project towards "creating an inclusive stadium where everyone can enjoy themselves."

The pediatric department entrance on the first floor and the treatment room on the fifth floor of the Maternal and Child Medical Center at the Jikei University Hospital were renovated to create a space that would make the hospital more appealing and familiar to children and their guardians. This project was initiated by Professor Kimihiko Oishi, medical director and head of the Pediatrics Department at the Jikei University Hospital, who, based on his experience working in the medical field in the United States, felt that the current space in the hospital was new and beautiful, but was it a comfortable place for children? What about their families? And what about the staff who work there? Sega Sammy Holdings agreed with the desire of Professor Oishi and the pediatric ward staff to "enrich the lives of children in the hospital," and decided to support the Jikei University Hospital through content and Sega characters.

Tochigi Health Checkup Plaza is a medical facility that relocated and reopened on January 15, 2024, for receiving health checkups and comprehensive medical examinations. In today's era, often referred to as the "100-year life era," regular health checkups and comprehensive medical examinations are more important than ever for managing one's health. To fulfill our customers' wish that their annual checkup day be a "rich and special day," we have created a hospitable space from architecture to interior and furniture concept design. To meet our customers' requests and broad concept design needs, we teamed up NAU (now the Architectural Production Department), which excels in total concept design on an urban planning and architectural scale, with an interior concept design team that specializes in the hospitality market, such as hotels. By leveraging each other's expertise and concept design comprehensively from architectural scale to human scale, we have created a space that alleviates the psychological anxiety of patients and allows them to spend their time comfortably and pleasantly. With its smart appearance symbolizing a cutting-edge medical facility and a space filled with elegant colors, we aimed to create a facility that would become a symbol of the city, rooted in the community and loved by its residents.

This facility is Japan's first 3D-printed housing construction technology, and the first commercially available 3D-printed store for general sale. Its purpose is to provide relaxation through advanced training and extraordinary experiences. The operating company is Cascade Tokyo, which develops medical and nursing care services, and it utilizes the development technology of its partner, Selendisc, which was the first in Japan to realize 3D-printed housing and commercialization. For this project, our company is in charge of creative production utilizing technology, from research, planning, and consulting to concept design, exhibit execution. We aimed to create a treatment space that combines advanced technology and concept design, with the hope that it will be a stepping stone for the development of future treatment centers.

Since opening in 2011 at the east exit of JR Urawa Station, East Medical Clinic's newly built medical facility in Urawa PARCO has been used for internal medicine, breast surgery, complete health checkups, and health checkups not only by local residents but also by many nearby companies. This is a relocation project to a mall. The opening of the relocation comes after two years of consulting on the target property and redefining the mission as the scale of the clinic expanded.

This project, a collaboration between Mori Building and Keio University, aims to create an innovative hub for next-generation preventive medicine, set against the backdrop of Azabudai Hills, a "Modern Urban Village" concept based on the two pillars of Green & Wellness. The center will expand and relocate from within the university hospital in Shinanomachi to two floors, the 5th and 6th floors, of the Mori JP Tower in Azabudai Hills. The 5th floor will offer personalized health checkups where patients can order examination menus according to their own needs, while the 6th floor will offer a newly established membership-based medical service, "Preventive Medicine Membership." AND was responsible for concept design of the common areas on the 5th and 6th floors, excluding the examination rooms.

Toyama City, Toyama Prefecture, and NOMURA Co.,Ltd. Co., Ltd. have opened "TOYAMA TOWN TREKKING SITE," a new lifestyle hub themed around "transforming a closed gymnasium into a gymnasium that connects to the outside." This project was selected as part of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' FY2016 "Public Facility Open Renovation Project," which aims to revitalize public facilities owned by local governments with private sector vitality, such as creators, and turn them into new business hubs. The goal is to "revitalize" the dead space of the Toyama City General Gymnasium through renovation, creating a multi-generational exchange hub where residents can engage in town trekking (walking around town) and other activities. "TTS" is a complex facility that includes a cafe, sports shop, and studio. The facility will be equipped with facilities (hardware) to support town trekking, and will be operated as part of a new public service to support the health of Toyama citizens by regularly holding events (software) focused on "food education," "physical education," and health education. Leveraging its location adjacent to Kansui Park, which attracts 1.4 million visitors annually, this project aims to be a pioneering initiative in Japan. It will be used not only by users of the Toyama City General Gymnasium but also as a base for exploring the area, allowing citizens to experience "extended healthy life expectancy" and "improved quality of life (QOL)," while the local government strives to build a "positive cycle model of residents' healthy behavior and the local economy." "TTS" provides "time and space that nurtures people, not just time or space alone, which is necessary for the health of people and the city," and slowly creates a "space" where you can share something that belongs to no one else with others.

The HU Group's mission is "to create new value in healthcare." The "HU Bioness Complex" is the core facility of its healthcare business, symbolizing this mission. This is a place where the future of all life is created through the fusion of "Bio," the accumulation of life data, and "Business," the creativity that brings innovation to the industry. To realize the facility's concept of "connecting, showcasing, and nurturing," our company was comprehensively responsible for "communication concept design," encompassing everything from concept design the working environment for employees, planning and producing spaces and content that introduce the value offered by the facility to guests, to branding including facility naming, logo, and signage, as well as promotion and operation such as novelty items, leaflets, and opening events.

Sumitomo Life's "Vitality" product combines features such as variable premiums and benefits (rewards) to support customers' efforts and continuation of health promotion activities. To allow more customers to experience its advanced features and value, we have developed walk-in stores. Our company was in charge of the following stores: ・Sumitomo Life "Vitality" Plaza Yurakucho Store (Opened April 2020) ・Sumitomo Life "Vitality" Plaza Shinjuku Store (Opened November 2019) [Social Issues / Customer Issues / Requests] While addressing three issues—increasing awareness of "Sumitomo Life "Vitality"", acquiring new customers, and improving policyholder loyalty—there was a need to utilize "digital" to create new experiential value rooted in "people". By developing stores in the heart of Ginza, one of Japan's leading commercial districts, and disseminating information, we promoted the project to contribute to Sumitomo Life's vision of "Each individual living a better life = well-being". [Solution] We created a space where customers can experience the world of Vitality by visualizing the features of Sumitomo Life's "Vitality" health program—"understanding your health status," "improving your health status," and "enjoying benefits (rewards)"—through benefit displays and videos. We created a flexible space that can be used to hold various events and seminars to support health promotion activities, and a meeting room where face-to-face support can be provided to existing policyholders, resulting in a plan that emphasizes value rooted in "people." Interactive content that makes health initiatives personal has been introduced in the entrance, providing a new "digital" experience with Ginza as the backdrop. We hope that this store will become one that supports the "daily lives" of each individual through the space in the heart of Ginza and contributes to the realization of a healthy and long-lived society. [Customer Feedback] Many design companies in the same industry visit our store because they are interested in design, layout of your company. Customers have said things like, "The wall concept design is wonderful," "It's a stylish space," "The smart partitions are cool," and "It's a space that makes you want to sign a contract," and some have been impressed by the monolith (a large touch-panel monitor). <Our Project Members> ・Sumitomo Life "Vitality" Plaza Ginza Flagship Store [Development] Mizuki Ogura [Sales/Project Management] Keita Shima [Planning] Yuki Noda, Hiroshi Matsushita [Digital Content Planning] Aya Watanabe [Leasing] Aya Nishimoto, Tomoko Shirasaki [design, layout] Yasushi Machida, Megumi Yatsuka, Mariko Yamagiwa [Production/ construction] Tomokuni Hasegawa [System Design/ construction] Keisuke Taneda, Yuki Kuga ・Sumitomo Life "Vitality" Plaza Yurakucho Store [Development] Mizuki Ogura [Sales/Project Management] Keita Shima [Planning] Yuki Noda [design, layout] Yasushi Machida [Production/ construction] Kazuki Misawa ・Sumitomo Life "Vitality" Plaza Shinjuku Store [Development] Mizuki Ogura [Sales/Project Management] Keita Shima [Planning] Koji Nakazato, Yuki Noda [design, layout] Yasushi Machida [Production and construction] Kazuki Misawa

Park Well State" by Mitsui Fudosan Residential is a serviced residence for mature, active seniors with diverse values, aiming to enable them to spend a new stage of their lives freely and abundantly in their own way. Park Well State Kamogawa, the second property following Park Well State Hamadayama, will be built in Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture. It will be a 22-story building with a capacity of approximately 470 units, and will be a high value-added facility with a partnership with the medical corporation that operates Kameda General Hospital in the same city and leisure functions in the facility. We were in charge of the common areas, including the lobby reception area, promenade, club lounge, and restaurant. The Kamogawa area was originally a hilly area covered in forests with a rich ecosystem, but after being used as a quarry in the 1990s, the trees were cut down and the land was left bare and rocky. The project was aimed at creating a home where the residents, the seniors, could enjoy a rich time and life while restoring the natural environment, from the viewpoint that a natural environment enhances the quality of life for seniors and is the foundation for a healthy and rich life. SOLUTION: To solve the problem, a brightly colored white sycamore veneer was used for the interior finishing material to create a warm common-use space. The height of the washbasin was set lower than usual to accommodate seniors, and the corners and edges were chamfered with rounded edges. The flooring is made of stone, carpet, and flooring with narrow joints to prevent steps from being taken, and to create a safe and friendly environment for seniors. concept design The artwork was selected to reflect the local quarry site and the Kamogawa River, and local crushed stone was used to create a work of art that expresses the charm of the Kamogawa River and its local climate and culture. ＜Our project members＞ 【Sales/Project Management】 Naoki Murata 【design, layout】Common area concept design ・Supervision: Michio Matsuzaki / Artwork coordination: Misa Sanjoba, Wataru Tajiri 【Production・ construction】Masato Takeuchi, Shusuke Hoshino, Keiichi Yamazaki, Shogo Yasunaga

This project involves expanding the women's floor of Tokyo's largest health checkup facility from one floor to two, and renovating it with a new concept design. Based on the concept of "providing a comfortable and smart health checkup experience for women working in the city center," we aimed to create a space that considers the flow, sightlines, and comfort of both patients and staff. Through repeated discussions with many stakeholders, we carefully designed every detail of the functionality and design, which led to the creation of a highly hospitable health checkup service. [Social Issues/Client Issues/Requests] The client's primary request was to significantly increase the capacity and operational efficiency of the women's patient slots. The challenge was to ensure ease of use and comfort while maximizing the number of examination rooms and waiting area seats. At the same time, we aimed to enhance the sense of exclusivity and added value in order to further establish the competitive advantage of "Shinjuku Health Checkup Plaza" within the health checkup facility market. [Solution] We adopted "SMART HEALTH RESORT" as the overall concept for the facility, designating the existing 7th-concept design ladies' floor as "COMFORT RESORT" and the newly established 8th floor as "PRIME RESORT" to offer an even more exclusive experience than the 7th floor. With the aim of providing a comfortable and smart health checkup experience for women working in the city center, the spatial expression is based on a hotel-like luxury feel, and the color scheme is based on beige and light-colored wood tones. Instead of common colors such as gold and silver, the metal materials are unified in a pink bronze color to give a sense of exclusivity. Furthermore, while many medical facilities generally use plain, subdued wallpaper for interiors of the examination rooms, we differentiated our facility by using patterned wallpaper in each room to help patients relax as much as possible during their examination. Securing the required number of examination rooms and waiting areas within a limited floor space was an extremely difficult problem. However, through repeated discussions with medical technologists and medical equipment manufacturers, we were able to determine the minimum size of each examination room that would allow for both "smooth examination operations" and "avoiding a feeling of confinement for patients," and then plan accordingly, thereby achieving the necessary number. <Our Project Members> [Sales & Project Management] Tsuneo Kozasa, Yukako Ninomiya [Planning] Hiroyuki Imaizumi [design, layout] Kumiko Oishi, Mei Watanabe [Production & construction] Mai Sakai, Nohara Kikuchi

"Medicha," a self-conditioning business centered on meditation, was born from Mitsubishi Estate's new business proposal system. It is an immersive meditation studio that provides urban dwellers, who are exposed to a great deal of stress, with "luxurious time to create space for oneself" through a unique meditation program that liberates all five senses. Our company assisted Mitsubishi Estate from various angles, from the business planning stage of brand launch to the opening, providing support in areas such as consulting, experience concept design, spatial concept design, graphic concept design, meditation content advice, and art curation. [Customer's Voice] In creating an immersive studio that fuses "meditation," "art," and "tea," we received comprehensive support not only in interiors but also in realizing the concept and designing the service so that customers would experience meditation. We are also grateful that by collaborating with experts in each field, such as meditation, sound, lighting, and tea, we were able to realize a space and service that maximizes the effects of meditation while maintaining the worldview. <Our Project Members> [Sales & Project Management] Shun Kawai [Consulting & Planning] Shoko Miyazaki [design, layout] Hideaki Hata, Yoshitaka Hirayama, Keisuke Yoshida [Production & construction] Kenji Takekawa, Tomoharu Kawai, Yuko Yamashita, Tadahiro Nakajima

[Project Overview] This project involved interiors design of a comprehensive medical and beauty building consisting of 12 floors. The interior concept design concept was "a sense of 'fluctuation' that people find comfortable." By incorporating elements of fluctuation such as "water ripples," "movement of light," and "sunlight filtering through trees" into concept design while utilizing the existing architecture, a new standard for a medical facility was established, reminiscent of a high-quality spa.
