This good work is based on their hope which a desire to bring environmental issues closer to them, although they tend to view the issues on a global scale. It is hoped that companies aiming to comply with Paris Agreement, a new international treaty aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, will actively use Cradle of forest.
STATEMENT OF ART:I believe that the design is the foundation of business strategy instead of an added value or subsequently obtained status. Consistent strategy from branding to product development can survive in an intensifying competitive society. You consider the design as an important element of management strategy and believe that the value revealed during a design building process is important for illuminating your vision of management and narrowing down the direction of the design. I think you want to build your design into shining one and keep it shining more brightly by making the design fuse with the business instead of making the design into a special existence. As a designer, I have built spaces with superior function, performance and design, and offered comfortable spaces where anyone is happy to stay living by ensuring safety and peace of mind.
