▼ Comment from Tomonori Kitani, CEO of Kurashino House Co., Ltd.

We at Kurashino House have recently held the grand opening of the 'niko and ... EDIT HOUSE' model home in Toyama City, Toyama Prefecture. This is our second building in the Hokuriku area following Hakusan City, Ishikawa Prefecture, and our first expansion within Toyama Prefecture.

Our mission is to 'create spaces and designs that enrich lives, and provide valuable time for people.' This aspiration deeply resonates with the philosophy of lifestyle-inspired homebuilding proposed by 'niko and ...', leading to our participation and expansion in this project.

What we consider truly good design is 'designing the entire formative work that is a house.' While cherishing our contribution to our own vision as a group of professionals, we will above all continue to propose homebuilding that stays close to the thoughts of each customer and respects their wishes.

Through this new model home, we aim to deliver new value to people living in the region
