Philosophy

Who would ever have imagined that the rural landscapes of Futakotamagawa would become the birthplace of a pioneering shopping center.

We strive to realize our vision with love for each local communities and respect for its nature and culture.

What we have been creating are "Mind Symbols".

Throughout time, memories of people and cities are layered, creating shared values and becoming "the place in minds" for the ones who live, work and visit. It becomes scenery of minds and stands as a symbol of hope for the future.

Towards a future where everyone will have a place they want to live in, and visit.

With the developer's spirit in our heart, we continue to create Mind Symbols across borders.

In our words,

Make the “Mind Symbol”

    Make the “Mind Symbol”

    The Sentiments Behind the "Mind Symbol"

    What we have created so far is not merely a box (building), nor is it something that is complete once it is built.

    We cherish the local community, its nature, history, and culture. By continually refining its allure together with stakeholders and layering years and experiences, we have been creating “the place in minds and things that remain in the hearts" for the ones who live, work and visit the area.

    We call this the "Mind Symbol."

    Our Mission is to continue creating Mind Symbols, aiming for a future where everyone can be themselves in a place they cherish.
