The Kadokawa Culture Museum, SWEETS BANK, and Watch & Jewellery Square WAKO, for which we helped create the spaces, have been awarded the iF DESIGN AWARD 2022.
Based in Hannover (Germany), iF International Forum Design is the world's longest-standing independent design organization, and every year it selects outstanding designs and presents them with the iF DESIGN AWARD. This year, 132 design experts rigorously reviewed 11,000 submitted designs from 57 countries and regions, and the following three designs were awarded the iF DESIGN AWARD.
Going forward, we will continue to keep in mind the perspective of those who will use the space and work to create rich spaces that can contribute to our customers' businesses.
