About Riki Watanabe : With a focus on interior design, Riki Watanabe work spans across a wide range of professional fields such as creative direction and branding. Utilizing the knowledge and multifaceted perspectives that we have cultivated through designing commercial spaces, hospitality spaces, exhibitions, products, and other genres, we design in consideration of the way places should be, the experiences that can be gained there, and the flow of time. For Riki Watanabe, design is not only to create new values, but also to discover the beauty and value that already exists, and to create something that will be passed down and evolve, even if the shape is old.
