Greeting<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Message from the President<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The word "Design" is said to be derived from "Desire," which includes the meaning of "to long for, to yearn for."
A group that continues to fulfill the desires and aspirations of our customers<\/strong>In April 1998, we founded Design Club Co., Ltd. with the aim of becoming a company that can provide a wide range of services.<\/span>

And that attitude is not to face the customer,We want to always be close to our customers and treat them with affection, like a friend.<\/strong>From the feeling that \u201cFor Smile With Friendship\u201d<\/strong>We have adopted this phrase as our vision.

we,I want to invigorate the people involved in the space through interior design.<\/strong>I feel strongly about this.

\u201c"I'd be excited to live like this"\u201d<\/span>
\u201c"It makes me nervous to think about my daily life."\u201d<\/span>
There is nothing more satisfying than when a customer discovers a different feeling or emotion than they had yesterday, and then expresses their gratitude for it.

In recent years, we have seen an increase in work in commercial facilities, nursing homes, hotels, and other facilities.
In order to energize those who come to relax and gather, the space must not only be a comfortable, high-quality space for customers, but also a stress-free plan that makes it easy for the people who work there to provide service. Sometimes we put ourselves in the customer's shoes, and sometimes in the shoes of the staff who provide service, and we would like to be involved through design so that we can share the joy of hearing a single word of "thank you" from our customers.

\u201cFor Smile With Friendship\u201d<\/span><\/strong>
We will never forget this feeling and will continue to be the best friend to our customers, helping them to make their dreams come true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
