The design concept of TRUNK(HOUSE) is “TOKYO DESIGN”.
It literally means to design the city of Tokyo.
We work with partners who know Tokyo well and want to make this city a more exciting place; to create original, well-grounded designs that go beyond our guests’ imaginations.
With rather chaotic streets coupled with old Japanese-style houses and newly multipurposed buildings standing in rows on intricate streets, Tokyo takes in both the old and the new, creating and mingling genre-straddling cultures.
We regard these phenomena as positive aspects of Tokyo and try to incorporate them into contemporary statements.

TRIPSTER
TRIPSTER was founded in 2004 by Masato Ogasawara, Kunichi Nomura and Wataru Yamada, who had operated a seaside house SPUTNIK in the west coast of Tsujido, Kanagawa since 1999. Aya Nagata has also joined TRIPSTER now, and they organize a task team for each project, engaging in diverse store design and construction direction both at home and abroad.
Oryza
Oryza creates new connections among people, buildings and the city with plants. Some of our projects include planting plans at commercial facilities, outdoor facility plans of offices, indoor greenery plans at shops, furniture plans at apartments, show window displays or gardening at private houses. Through interactions with clients, we aim to take what should be there in a very real sense out of the background of the location.
