We received the Gold Award at the "KUKAN DESIGN AWARD 2026" and other awards.

At the "KUKAN DESIGN AWARD 2026" (organized by the Japan Spatial Design Association and the Japan Commercial Environmental Design Association), the "Techniques for Observing Nature" exhibit on the 1st floor south wing of the Japan Gallery at the National Museum of Nature and Science, for which we assisted in the creation of the space, received the Gold Award in the Cultural Exchange Space category, and the "YKK AP Technology Museum" received the Gold Award in the Corporate Promotion Space category. In addition, the following projects were selected for the Shortlist and Longlist.

KUKAN DESIGN AWARD is the only and largest spatial award in Japan, which was established with the aim of expanding new possibilities in spatial design by discovering outstanding designs and talented designers and promoting them to the world.

This award is a great encouragement to all involved in creating the space, including our designers. We would also like to thank our clients for giving us this opportunity, and everyone who helped us along the way.

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.
