Takayuki Koike

While people tend to think that a job of a landscape architect is to design natural elements such as water and greenery, but it is in fact more artificial than natural. We are a group of professionals endeavoring to manifest a high-quality environment where human activities are aligned with the workings of nature. Our objective to create outdoor spaces with high added values by identifying the timeless values and charms that are unique to each location, such as its natural, historical, and cultural heritage, and discerning “what will not change” and “what will change” with time.
