  • The large net playground equipment "Ami Ami Kankan" lets in sunlight just like outdoors, and since it is an indoor facility, you can play even on rainy days. It will make an impression on the facility as a highlight of the facility to attract customers.

About the Project

Overview The WEST building of the commercial facility, which consists of the EAST building with its supermarket and specialty stores, and the WEST building with its cinema and outlet specialty stores, has undergone a major renovation. With a business concept specializing in "sports and activities," it has been reborn as a "place where people want to gather," attracting people with an interest in sports and leisure.
Issues/Themes In a climate where differentiation from the surrounding large commercial facilities is required, the creation of space that takes advantage of the West Building's waterfront location will make the facility attractive to both tenant companies and customers.
Space Solution/Realization In contrast to the EAST Building, which is the daily zone for everyday use, the renewal was based on the concept of an "active leisure park," with a shift from "come to shop = providing goods" to "enjoy your time = providing experiences." With the image of a "park filled with fun experiences" where people can get active and play, various features within the building differentiate it from the surrounding commercial facilities. The interior design is in line with the MD plan, which focuses on sports and the outdoors.
Design for Environment Healthy design: We have striven to use F☆☆☆☆ certified materials for the interior.
Energy-saving design: New lighting and existing lighting fixtures were replaced with LEDs. Water-saving toilets were installed in the renovated restrooms.
Reuse design: Existing furniture such as shared benches are reused by painting and repairing them.
Universal design: Regarding signs within the building, we considered the selection of colors and their placement based on feedback from visually impaired people.
Safety design: For the updated flooring, materials were selected with slip resistance in mind. Automatic doors have been fitted with guardrails for safety.
