RECRUITMENT

Sine the establishment in 2018, thankfully we are working on interesting projects and looking for new teammates (both intern and architect, which could be either full-time or part-time) to develop and realize these projects together and also develop the studio itself from the start-up. It is a big challenge to setup such an international architecture studio, so we would like to proceed it with collaborators who are interested in and sympathized with this challenge.

Through the founder Mai Komuro's experiences at Herzog & de Meuron, we aim to be an international practice in terms of both projects and collaborators. Through her past experiences, the strength of this studio is strong architecture design from concept level, especially for art/cultural spaces and public spaces. Currently majority of our projects are in Japan, however we are interested in expanding diversity of the projects, and also plan to participate any interesting competitions.

Our design process emphasizes thinking with hands such as sketches and physical model making as well as any interesting technology helping design development processes and communication process. We are currently using Revit to develop design both in 2D and in 3D in parallel.

We respect character and independence of individuals with high motivation and sense of responsibility, and we believe individual strength is very important to achieve successful collaboration as a team, and we plan to provide sufficient opportunities for motivated collaborators to challenge, learn and grow. We generally keep working hours and working styles flexible to fit to each lifestyle and situation.
