About the Project

Overview Showrooms has been established in the entrance space of the newly refurbished head office 100 years after the founding of Pegasus Sewing Machine Manufacturing. It is a place where customers and local residents can experience the company's technical capabilities, culture, and unique identity, and foster relationships for the future.
Issues/Themes To Showrooms our 100-year history, technical capabilities, and corporate culture rooted in the local community to clients, partner companies, and local residents who visit our headquarters.
Space Solution/Realization The entrance space is a space that clearly communicates the company's identity by simply visualizing its history as a leading manufacturer of chain stitch sewing machines, with a display of successive sewing machines symbolizing the company's 100 years of history continuing from the entrance to the atrium area, a showcase showing a disassembled sewing machine made up of approximately 500 intricate parts, and a global business map showing an overall picture of the company's business locations. The design is also integrated with Architectural Design such as the distinctive exterior that evokes the image of chain stitching. In addition, the sewing machine experience room, which provides learning opportunities for local children, is a place to weave the spirit of "Pegasus Sewing Machines Flying into the Future" together with the local community.
