This old furniture manufacturer’s warehouse that was mainly used for OEM production was renovated as an open innovation facility at the same time we launched our new brand. 

By seamlessly connecting multi-purpose spaces such as an office, show room, outlet, open kitchen, and free space, using the high ceiling and wide layout to their greatest potential, we encourage multipurpose use by individuals from both within the company and outside. The change in base materials for the floor, walls, and ceiling in each space also helps to enable shooting footage for various promotional materials. 

Since we use construction materials made from waste wood for the walls, locally sourced natural wood from the company’s home turf for the ceilings, and locally sourced wood for the base material of the sofas that are being manufactured for sale, our whole company is making efforts towards the realization of a sustainable society, including not just the space but our manufactured products.
