We are architecture and design studio based in Tokyo.
We create architecture, interiors, and graphic design.
Our creative practice encompasses various design projects across a wide range of areas from spatial design, record sleeves, textiles and product design.
We believe that with anything, providing order to chaos bears a ‘new beauty’. If you take a closer look at mundane things around you, there is every kind of hidden beauty within them. These things may look disorganized, but actually, each element exists peacefully in an orderly manner. We pursue beauty that shines even brighter by peaceful order and echoing with each other.
