NOMURA Co.,Ltd. was responsible for the planning, design, layout, interior execution of the rest room at ZOZOBASE Tsukuba 3, ZOZO Inc.'s newest and largest logistics center, which began full-scale operations on November 1, 2023.
Based on the concept of "making the staff WAKUWAKU", we concept design a break room where you can have fun, be healed, and be motivated. By promoting automation through the introduction of the latest equipment for the first time in Japan, we expect to save about 30% of labor and introduce 100% electricity derived from renewable energy, making extensive use of sustainable and unique materials befitting an environmentally friendly facility. In addition, by incorporating art works that have been upcycled from ZOZOUSED's discarded products, we accelerate the "WAKUWAKU" feel.

"I'm originally a heavy ZOZOTOWN user, and I began designing with the idea that by expressing in the space the 'excitement' that you feel from purchasing a concept design until it arrives, it would be great if employees could take a break with excitement. The logistics center where the employees work is an area that, due to its function, is made up of a lot of inorganic materials, so in the break room, we wanted to make sure that employees could change their mood and feel refreshed as much as possible by using a lot of organic materials and craftsmanship. ZOZO and the artists and craftsmen who cooperated with us this time were all very warm and welcoming, and this break room was made possible as a result of everyone having fun, so I hope that people will be excited to use it."
