Danshosha will launch the "NEXSTO: Next Generation Store Idea Contest 2023" (hereinafter referred to as the "Contest") on Monday, July 3rd.
This contest is calling for ideas for "next-generation stores" that create a sense of "comfort" at a time when we are resuming our daily lives after having acquired new senses and habits following the restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Following on from last year, a "Student Award" has also been established, and we hope to attract many submissions from the younger generation.
Through this contest, Tanseisha will create an opportunity for a wide range of people to think about new store creation, inviting Tanseisha's clients, such as select shops and restaurant chains, as judges, and together with Tanseisha's designers, exploring the possibility of realizing stores that incorporate excellent ideas. Tanseisha, which has continued to expand the field of spatial creation with its ability to read the times, will promote open innovation that will create next-generation stores together with its clients, and will take on the challenge of creating new spaces that only Comprehensive display business that handles the creation of a wide variety of spaces can produce.
