The design team and fashion boutique SND have created a space that transports visitors to a distant memory of iron and sand in the midst of a bustling city.

A grand, immaculate dune evokes an otherworldly atmosphere, detached from the modern world and providing a serene escape from the urban chaos. It creates a pristine white stage against a pitch-black backdrop, displaying the collections of clothing like precious treasures and luring visitors to embark on an exploration.

The design team's main focus was to craft a distinctive spatial encounter within an already-existing building. By making use of the existing floor height, they managed to obscure the main retail area beneath the dune and create a large-scale structure that results in an immersive and profound atmosphere reminiscent of ancient times.

Kashiwa Sato designs the total branding for cosmetics manufacturers, from the logo, packaging, and motion graphics to the stores from start to finish. All the designs originate from a meticulously designed icon that perfectly aligns with the grid of the brand name motif.
The fixtures are designed based on the same concept, making the products appear as though they are placed directly in the space. The floor, ceiling, and fixtures of the stores all have a cohesive mirror finish, and the motion graphics and brand movies displayed on the LED monitors covering the entire wall are reflected in these elements and expand infinitely, filling the space and giving visitors the impression that they have jumped into a world of information. It presents a new form of branding in which the store space functions as a medium for communication, enabling visitors to experience the brand concept with all five senses.

Combined with the brand vision and structural thinking, Team ultimately decided to revolve the design concept around the brand name. ANGLE is not only the English name for the brand, but also an English word that interprets "angle".In order to fully display the whole range of products of ANGLE, a number of windows and doors are set up in the space, with different forms and functions, including internal window display area, external window display area, intelligent door and window display area, large window display area and window display area, process display area, and functional testing area.The beauty of the concise geometry is vividly reflected, and the mirror ceiling reflection throughout the entire space successfully creates a scientific avant-garde sense. The A-shaped triangle symbol is everywhere, guiding and surrounding the narrative perspective of the space, pushing the story plot upwarding to flourish the vitality of life.

This is a renovation project for the Global Innovation Center of Amada, a company that boasts one of the world's top market shares in the metal processing technology and sales and development of processing equipment. The brand appeal area, technology displays, communication space, actual equipment displays area, and sales negotiation space were planned based on the "value Amada brings to the world." This facility allows visitors to experience the "passion for building bonds with customers and manufacturing that contributes to society" that has been passed down since the company's founding, as well as the high level of technological capabilities, and allows them to feel the possibilities for the future that we will walk together with Amada. The construction, interior and equipment are likened to a state-of-the-art environmentally friendly building, and CO2 emissions are reduced by 50% compared to the building before renovation too by using AI.

Situated within Overland's headquarters in Foshan, this project serves as a brand experience center, aiming to enhance the brand's image as a multifunctional space that combines reception, display, and experiential functions.

Therefore, the project's design needed to grasp the design philosophy of the new product series, leveraging architectural space and light as mediums to create a backdrop that highlights the new products. The overall design needed to show respect for and harmonious coexistence with nature.

Moving away from the homogeneous displays and products-centric designs typical of conventional showrooms, this space emphasizes the interaction between products, space, nature, people and time. It represents a bold yet confident exploration of showroom design within China's ceramic tile sector.

Taking the Chinese character garden as a starting point. the design narrates the overall space through the sequence of "Pending Garden/ Approaching Garden/ Wandering Garden/ Lingering Garden".
The clear cracks in the ground and the appearance of non-artificially intervened natural life over time provided us with an answer on how to perceive both artificial construction and organic nature.
By translating the inimitable nature into the project design, the designer extracted spatial forms from daily scenes in our life.

Located in the core area of the old campus of Xiamen Academy of Arts and Design, Fuzhou university, the project was transformed from a large sculpture studio in the 1980s, which was formerly a studio with several well-known contemporary sculpture artists. We transformed it into a complex art space integrating coffee, exhibition, and retail while taking maintaining its original features as a principle, thus focusing on the multiple expression of aesthetics, showcasing a corner of aesthetics in one space. Different kinds of themed designs and artistic exhibitions will be held there regularly to select global independent designers’ products and feel the core of aesthetics in the atmosphere of the smell of coffee.
