Awards Ceremony
Comment from Osamu Kobayashi President and Chief Executive Ofcer of Tanseisha

Starting in fiscal 2024, we have adopted a new purpose: "Paint the future through space and bring color to people and society." In line with our new purpose, we have restarted the "NEXSTO - Next Generation Store Idea Contest," an initiative launched in 2021 to solicit and award next-generation store ideas from the general public. We have renamed it the "Tanseisha Space Awards." As a result, we feel that the awards have evolved into one that receives a wider variety of ideas from a wider range of fields and spaces than before.
Now that we have added our company name to the name, we would like to continually update the award to make it more in keeping with the times and more representative of our company. This award is also a place to directly interact with business operators. We feel that it is extremely valuable to have the opportunity to think together about the spaces of the future, not just to judge the submitted works, but also to share with business operators what they expect from their spaces and the visions they want to realize. We hope that this initiative will inspire participants and be the first step in creating spaces of the future.
About this award
The Tanseisha Space Award is a collaborative field where new talent meets professionals who create spaces that will add color to the city, and where they can think together about the potential and shape of future spaces. Anyone who envisions a space of the future is free to participate in this award. As part of our open innovation, we also invite Tanseisha's clients to participate as judges.
