私たちの考え

corporate identity

Timeless design

  Its value does not deteriorate over time

 
Minimal design
   Richer architectural expression with fewer elements
 
Relationship between inner and outer space

  We are examining the architecture and exterior, indoor and garden styles according to the surrounding environment and the client's lifestyle

design process:


We design clients' free demands concretely.
We are building ideas while exchanging opinions with clients.
When designing, we are studying using models and 3dcg to form an image.

About the residence:

The house represents the dweller's lifestyle and personality.
At the same time, it is also a point of contact with the city and can be a social property.
A cozy space, an appearance that enjoys the passage of time, we create such architecture.

The characteristics of a place are to read the historical environment around the site, the appearance of the building when it was built, the scenery that can be seen from the site, and the way light and wind pass.

Draw an image of the building into a specific shape.

Use drawings, models, and perspectives to represent the concrete shape of the building based on the nature of the request, various conditions, and discussion. Provide suggestions, review requests, exchange opinions and confirm. At this stage, the design cost estimates determine the balance of floor plans, exterior drawings, spatial configurations, structures, finishing materials, equipment specifications, design and construction schedules, and so on. Balance your budget.
