Based on your unique concept, such as a simple and modern "iki-ism," an art-space-like "iki-ism," or a diverse range of "iki-ism" styles, we will create an original "iki-ism" space through renovation that fuses traditional beauty with modern comfort.

Stillness and Movement Variability that Embraces Life
Starting with residential design, I have been involved in the design of a wide range of spaces including offices, shops, hotels, and hospitals. My motto is "Listen carefully and do your best." I value creating a unique space for each individual through careful dialogue. Awards: Good Design Award. Representative of Atelier Don, an architectural design firm.
Focusing on the design and manufacture of custom-made kitchens and furniture, we propose high-quality and dignified living spaces. We are committed to beauty and functionality, material quality and presence, and carefully translate our vision into reality, valuing the individual sensibilities and lifestyles that suit each person. Eminin Co., Ltd. / Representative Director.

It aims to surprise, impress, and showcase Japanese traditional culture in the restrooms of hotels, inns, and restaurants throughout Japan. Sakamoto Soei holds the Urasenke tea ceremony name and a 5th dan in Kyudo (Japanese archery). He is the representative director of Sakamoto Co., Ltd., a specialized plumbing trading company that has been in business for 90 years.
This highly artistic toilet features a lid finished with lacquer, gold powder maki-e (lacquer painting), and mother-of-pearl inlay. Available in two color schemes: vermilion red and jet black. Its distinctive features include a luxurious feel that embodies Japanese aesthetics and the beauty of traditional design, creating a dazzling and elegant toilet space.
Instead of adapting your life to your kitchen, we want to adapt your kitchen to your life! We help you realize this dream with a custom-made kitchen.
How are you different from a typical home renovation company?
At iki-ism, we begin the design process not with "what kind of space to create," but with "how you want to live." We create spaces while considering not only updating facilities and improving appearance, but also your lifestyle, aesthetic sense, the background of your preferences, and future changes. We design and propose designs based on the philosophy of being "guides who see through to the essence," not "editors of information."
I'm not entirely sure what I want to do yet, but can I talk to you about it?
Of course, that's perfectly fine. In fact, many people come to us because they vaguely want to change things, they have things they like but can't organize them, or they don't know what the right answer is. At iki-ism, we start with empathetic listening. We connect the scattered "likes" and find a direction for the space.
Can I request your services for partial renovation work?
Yes, it's possible. For example, even for partial renovations of areas like the kitchen, living room, entrance, bathrooms, storage, or workspace, we design while considering the relationship with the entire space. We value designs that can improve the quality of life, even with small changes.
Can I request design services only?
We can accommodate your request depending on the content. However, iki-ism considers the entire process—from empathetic consultation to design, construction, and even ongoing support for your life after handover—as a single value proposition. Therefore, including construction allows us to provide a more authentic value.
Can we discuss the budget?
Yes, absolutely. We prioritize and design a system that "uses the budget where it matters." We focus on improving the essential elements rather than changing everything.
What is the service area?
iki-ism handles inquiries from all over Japan. We value empathy for "how you want to live" more than location. Therefore, even for projects in distant locations, we proceed with the design while carefully engaging in dialogue. Please note that for areas outside of Tokyo, Kanagawa, Chiba, and Saitama prefectures (1 metropolis and 3 prefectures), travel expenses will be discussed separately. For projects outside of Japan, we accept both design and product delivery. Please feel free to contact us for a consultation.
