Life Design Kabaya Co., Ltd. (President: Kentaro Kubota; Headquarters: Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture) held the grand opening of its 'Life Design Kabaya OHK Housing Exhibition Center' on May 2, 2026, within the newly renovated 'OHK Housing' complex in Naka-ku, Okayama City. This marks the company's first participation in the OHK Housing exhibition. On May 1, 2026, an opening ceremony hosted by Okayama Broadcasting Co., Ltd. was held, where Life Design Kabaya's Executive Vice President, Takashi Ishimoto, gave a speech representing the exhibitors. OHK Housing was renovated with the concept 'Home building starts from that day's walk,' aiming to be a park-like space for families. The Life Design Kabaya exhibition center utilizes the proprietary 'CLT Hybrid Construction' method and is designed as a 'residential resort for adults.' Features include an open-plan living/dining area with 2,600mm ceilings and a resort-hotel-style bedroom. The company aims to secure 40 orders within the first year. The CLT Hybrid Construction method integrates CLT load-bearing walls into traditional wooden frame construction, ensuring high seismic resistance. This method has received a triple award: the 2025 Good Design Award, the iF Design Award 2026, and the Wood Design Award 2025.
