For the complete renovation of Hoshino Resorts' hot spring inn "Kai Matsumoto," our company was responsible for design, construction, brand art, and signage design. The concept of "Kai Matsumoto" is "A hot spring inn where you can immerse yourself in Matsumoto elegance," named after the Italian word meaning luxury and grace. We have created a space that realizes a new small luxury stay where Western sensibilities resonate with modern architecture, including a refresh of the Italian cuisine that pursues pairings with local Shinshu wines, and the renovation of guest rooms into local rooms called "GAKU no Ma" where guests can be enveloped in the sounds of music.

Located in Tokyo's Yaesu district, a hub where people from both Japan and abroad with diverse purposes converge, this information center was designed not merely as a place to provide information, but as a "landmark (or trigger) for travel." By using Tama-grown timber and incorporating design elements reminiscent of Edo culture, we created a space that embodies "Old meets New." Our aim is not only to efficiently provide tourist information, but also to stimulate the interest and curiosity of visitors and create opportunities for travel. From Yaesu, an international gateway, this tourist information hub encourages encounters with the multifaceted charms of Tokyo.

Our company was in charge of Sigma's displays booth at CP+ 2026, the world's premier show for cameras and photographic imaging, held at Pacifico Yokohama. Since its founding, Sigma has always maintained a deep respect for people's passion for expression and has aimed to provide the best photographic equipment to meet all needs. One year after the announcement of a new VI that returns to this origin and re-examines the essence of Sigma, the Sigma booth at CP+ 2026 was an attempt to visualize this. In this project, the quality of "Made in Aizu, Japan," realized at the Aizu factory, the company's only production base, was used as the identity, and the philosophy of "The Art of engineering. Engineering for Art." was unfolded in the booth. The aim was to create a space where visitors could intuitively feel the respect and responsibility for optical technology, design philosophy, and photographic culture. In designing the booth, we reinterpreted "Japan" in the context of a comprehensive equipment displays. The booth's exterior design is inspired by the concepts of "hashirama" (spaces between pillars) and "yorishiro" (objects that serve as vessels for spirits), while the ceiling features a fabric curtain installation that expresses "light transmission" and "layered lenses." This was realized in collaboration with lighting designer Yoshiki Ichikawa (AURORA Inc.). By randomly hanging translucent fabric curtains and illuminating them with moving lights, a scene reminiscent of the fantastical misty landscapes of Aizu, Sigma's home ground, is created. In the test shooting experience corner, artwork made from waste materials generated during the manufacturing of aperture blades for interchangeable lenses was co-created with the team at Sawada concept design Studio. This was presented as a subject that allowed visitors to actually check the lens performance. Based on the question, "Are textual information and explanatory diagrams truly indispensable for true brand understanding?", the explanatory function was stripped down to the bare minimum, extracting only the most important physical brand embodiment value, aiming for a memorable spatial experience. *Event period: February 26 - March 1, 2026

In line with Bic Camera's policy of moving beyond the mass-market retail model, we transformed their store from a manufacturer-driven, spec-based sales floor into a new type of store where customer-centric experiences and discoveries are born. Our group consistently produced this new store from conception to implementation. While inheriting the traditional, voluminous display style, we reconfigured the space across various categories, from home appliances to general merchandise, centering it around multiple lifestyles. We created a store experience where customers can find scenes in their lives that interest them, touch the products, and try them out thoroughly, ultimately discovering exceptional items that match their own values. From a place to "buy" to a place to "discover." In Ikebukuro, a fiercely competitive area for home appliance retailers, we created a hub that offers new value beyond the conventional framework.

The "Kukai Room" is a permanent displays room showcasing the life and work of Kobo Daishi Kukai. This time, while retaining the existing graphic content, concept design has been refreshed, and a map showing Kukai's journey has been added to make displays more accessible. In addition, new signs have been installed at the entrance to make the route through displays room easier to understand and to help visitors comprehend displays. Furthermore, in the central area of displays room, a projection of five words written by Kukai has been added, superimposed onto a statue of Kukai, creating an experience as if the historical figure Kukai were standing right there. The characters used in this projection were recreated using AI that has learned from Kukai's own handwriting, with the cooperation of the Faculty of Creative Engineering at Kagawa University. By integrating visual information and spatial design, displays environment has been renewed to achieve both academic excellence and immersion.

We were responsible for the entire process, from design, layout and planning to interiors construction, for Head Office relocation project of Ai Kogyo, a house builder based in Osaka with operations nationwide.

NANKAI 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. We were in charge of planning design, layout and production construction.

Producer Hiroaki Miyata's signature pavilion for the 2025 Japan International Exposition (Osaka-Kansai Expo), "Better Co-Being," is a pavilion without a roof or walls, standing as if blending into the adjacent "Forest of Tranquility." With the theme of "Resonating Lives," visitors are led through a resonant experience consisting of three sequences, starting from the unique connections they make when they gather on that day and at that time. In Sequence 1, visitors reflect on themselves and others, and rediscover "what connects us." By confronting diverse motifs, they become aware of the value of others and their own desires, gaining clues to resonance toward the future. In Sequence 2, they experience a perspective that resonates with nature, culture, and the lives nurtured there. Through the universal motif of "voice," they listen to global values and realize how the customs of distant regions connect to their own lives. In Sequence 3, visitors connect with one another and experience envisioning a better future while engaging with the world. By feeling connected to people and nature and creating a rainbow together, they acknowledge their differences while looking up at the same sky and gain a sense of moving towards the future. In the final epilogue, a unique video is screened that overlays the actions and environmental data experienced by visitors at that moment, providing clues to their connection with the world and their journey towards the future together. In this pavilion, our company was responsible for the production and installation of the art installation that forms the core of the resonant experience, as well as the installation displays work of communication equipment related to "echorb" (sponsored by Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.), a special device that guides visitors through the experience.
