"setneck" is a true home chiropractic product developed through trial and error in response to requests from patients who get treated at osteopathic clinics. Therapists use their fingers in directly treating the affected area. The neck is a particularly delicate part of the human body that is extremely difficult to treat without many years of training, study, and practice. The setneck design faithfully mimics the form of the therapist's hands during neck treatments.

Kodama Project is the initiative to connect upstream-mountain people with downstream-town people, bringing together local resources and people through goods and materials. We plan, develop, and sell furniture, architecture, food, sundries, materials, and experiences that make use of locally-sourced natural materials.
The Kodama Base shown in the photo is a movable hut that can be transported by truck and installed in the space for a single car without the need for a construction permit. It is built using Tono cedar and Tono cypress for its structural, exterior, and interior timbers, plywood, and laminated timbers, all of which are sourced from the upstream area of the Higashi-Shirakawa Village in Gifu Prefecture. The basic model has nothing inside. The floor is solid cypress wood and the walls are soft plywood, so users can add shelves and customize it as they see fit. Equipped with insulation, installing a single air conditioner provides a comfortable place to be.

We assisted the Sugiyama Clinic in Ama City, in Aichi, with signage renovation work following the renaming to the Furumichi Acupuncture Clinic. We started by creating a logo. As the target market is young women, we designed it from a woman's point of view so that they would find it easy to visit. We believe that the logo expresses Dr. Sugiyama's belief that "an acupuncture clinic can represent a pivotal moment in someone's life.”

This is an example of a wall surface design created from the client's child's electrocardiogram and expressed in gold dust.

The OUROBOROS CLIP is a convenient item that allows you to easily clip items that are difficult to store, such as gloves and hats that are frequently put on and taken off during outdoor activities. Can also be used to hang lanterns and lights, or to secure tents and tarps. This product was successfully raised through crowdfunding.
There is also ``OUROBOROS CLIP Oboro (phosphorescent type)'' which uses 100% resin recycled from scrap materials and retains the same performance while adding the convenience of glowing in the dark.
