Words from the Company:

Background

Away from "bubble age" Tokyo

Japanese economy was flourishing in 1988, and resort development was booming. Such was the time when our landlord decided to build a new building on our office site. We searched for another place, but rents in Tokyo were soaring. And if one chooses to pay high rent, it means that one must increase their work load. Efficiency for profit becomes essential, though we wanted to take more time for making programs and design. Hence we have decided to move out of Tokyo.

To a new land, Hokkaido

We moved to Tokachi, Hokkaido, land of farming. An ex-school building used then as a community hall became our office. By leaving Tokyo, we could feel nature and become more familiar with the changing of seasons. We have also built new relationships with the community by discussing and sharing future plans for the area. Our work, and way of living changed drastically by having our own field of activities in a broader area.
