Overview
This was built for a young family as the premises of an automobile repair, maintenance, gallery and sales business with an attached residence. It is located in Ikoma City, Nara Prefecture, near the border with south-east Shijounawate City, Osaka Prefecture.
For this project, I was more than just the architect of the building. I took on the coordination of a larger scale venture: the building, furniture, signage design, sales tools and so on. so that the owners could open a new business and begin a new life.
I assembled a team of specialists – office designer, furniture designer, graphic designer, artist etc. and we collaborated our efforts throughout the project.
