“Design that adds color to life”
“Creating things that bring joy to people around the world and heighten their emotions”
Everyone has the opportunity to color their lives with their own hands. Our job is to create things through the act of design that give people a chance to add color to their lives.
To achieve this, we stand at all points of view, and by harmonizing different elements one by one, we bring a unique and uplifting feeling to the hearts of those who visit the space.
Things get better and better as we see and touch them. And each time we do, we can more vividly imagine a new future that even we could not have imagined before.
It is a joyous and indescribable rush of emotions to share that vision with each other in a vivid way.
To that end, let's calm each other's minds as they are and talk a little better design!

◾️Business Description
・Interior Design
(To gather information thoroughly. From each piece of furniture as a piece of shape and atmosphere suitable for the purpose, to the way the light hits it, and even the distance between people, I organize and update it as if it were a harmony of materials. At ITSUKA, we do not say, "I will always include ________ in the space I propose. We believe it is important that the right materials are in the right place, and that the space is designed to bring joy to the people who spend time in it, and for whom.)
・Product Design
(We focus on the characteristics and expressions of materials and on solving the biggest problems. Let us think together with you to propose new values of materials to the world.)
・Graphic Design
(We propose strategic graphics that will make the viewer love the brand.)
◾️ On your request
"We want to please! " ITSUKA's Manufacturing
We believe that there are several methods to come up with a good design. For example, the ability to conceive ideas, work with your hands, and carefully capture and reflect what you notice. And most important of all, we are particular about all the processes that work and work through design.
People, environments, and objects are all different. ITSUKA works to find the answer that makes the object it comes into contact with shine the brightest. We continue to change. At the same time, do not underestimate the power of realization. Our designers themselves are also hands-on, and by learning all they can about information, they can devise materials and processing techniques that will “always realize a good design”.
We hope you will feel free to contact us. Let's think together about how we can help you.
