• Architectural design management

  We assist with capital investments, through design management for ryokans, hot spring bathing facilities, catering facilities etc.

  • ■Lobby

    When you enter a ryokan's lobby, you feel its unique 'air'. That 'air' is the atmosphere of the local region, and the feeling with which the manager welcomes his or her guests. We create spaces which express the distinctive cultural qualities ryokans have.

  • ■Guest rooms

    Guests spend a lot of time in their rooms, so comfort is very important. A guest room should be more than just a place to sleep. It should be a place where people can slowly take their time, and get a really good night's sleep. Our designs all follow that basic principle.

  • ■Restaurants

    There are various styles, such as buffets, open kitchens and hearth dining rooms. We create spaces in which people can enjoy cuisine prepared with local ingredients.

  • ■Bathrooms

    Bathrooms are facilities about which guests have particular expectations. We create healing spaces which take full advantage of location and scenery. Furthermore, in our designs we consider a whole series of use conditions, from water quality to energy efficiency.

  • ■Landscape design

    Landscaping is essential for adapting architecture to suit the land. Our landscaping makes buildings look naturally in place.

  • ■Facilities

    Keeping down energy costs is extremely important. That is why we aim to offer energy-saving designs.

• Building diagnosis, maintenance, cooperation with maintenance & management

  The times have changed from an age of "scrap & build" to a "stock" era, in which existing buildings are valued. Renovating dilapidated facilities and properly managing them afterward saves energy. Facilities management is also an important part of the work that goes on at a ryokan.

  • ■Earthquake resistance diagnosis and earthquake reinforcement for buildings

    Let's begin with what can be done along with renovation work.

  • ■Energy-saving measures

    Implement energy-saving measures in three steps. We propose individual energy-saving measures that will be effective for each ryokan.
    
    ■ Step 1 (Enhance management)
    Prevent wasteful energy use through enhanced management, with no need to invest capital.
    ■ Step 2 (Add and improve facilities)
    Improve overall effectiveness by making small-scale investments, while the main facilities remain unchanged.
    ■ Step 3 (Change processes, introduce high-efficiency facilities)
    Enhance energy efficiency through the introduction of high-efficiency facilities and co-generation facilities.

  • ■Anti-aging/deterioration measures for buildings and facilities

    It is very important to investigate a building's current condition and understand any problems. Incorporating repair plans in the long term plan is very important for management continuity.

  • ■Periodic research report on special buildings

    Building owners are required maintain and manage their buildings in accordance with the law. Interpretation of pre-existing non-conformity or incompatibility can be difficult, but we will investigate a building's history and condition, and make a careful response from the standpoint of compliance.

• Furniture, artwork

  • ■Furniture

    Furniture is an extremely important element which guests come into direct contact with, and a decisive factor in spatial design. Our furniture proposals take account of form, comfort, durability and budget.

  • ■Artwork

    The artwork in a ryokan is what brings out its special qualities. If possible, you want it to tell a story which cannot be heard anywhere else. We will help you with choices that will do just that.
