INTERIOR DESIGN DIVISION Name of Company or Individual: supermaniac inc. Country: Japan Project Name: TOKI to TOKI Project Completed City: Kinosaki, Hyogo Interior Division: Hotel & Resort Website: http://www.supermaniac.ne.jp This traditional Japanese hotel “ryokan” is perfectly located in the central of Kinosaki onsen district near the station. Even though it is newly opened but TOKI to TOKI stands beautifully along the river as it had been there for a long time. TOKI to TOKI in Chinese characters means “season and time” and we wish that this hotel will be the place for the guests to simply enjoy changes of the season while time passing slowly. The design concept was “Miyabi” which means Japanese elegance. It seems loud but there is a refined sense embedded in the design. As we design, we came to understand “Miyabi” we want to express in our design is the pomp and the fine quality that can elevate our mind.
Name of Company or Individual: Kimoto Yoske Architectural design room Country: Japan Project Name: BREAD, ESPRESSO & "Arashiyama Garden" Project Completed City: Kyoto Interior Division: Retail Shop Website: http://www.hare-ma.com/profile When the old Kobayashi family residence, a cultural property, is used as a store used by the unspecified majority, it was difficult to use it without damaging the current atmosphere (the original value as a building) under the Building Standards Law. Therefore, by utilizing the proviso ordinance of Article 3, Paragraph 1, Item 3 of the Building Standards Law, we took a method that could be used legally while maintaining the current atmosphere. In order to compensate for areas not covered by current laws and regulations, structural reinforcement and disaster prevention reinforcement were implemented. There are few application examples in private houses in Kyoto Prefecture, and we hope that it will become an advanced example of leaving old buildings in the future.
