We were reborn as a unique space by incorporating new elements while maintaining a valuable history.

Graphic and web design, marketing, operations are all carried up in a single integrated design concept, not just limited to architecture or interior design.

We also vitalized exsiting design and program. Because ‘ZEROPLACE’ cocerns the social needs in the future.

Naming of the ‘ZEROPLACE’ was derived from the sense of "put down everything and back to the zero. The purpose of this work is making a shelter for the creator who passionately think and work and need some rest.

The concept of this project is ‘Minimal & Vintage’. As the meaning of ‘ZEROPLACE’ Minimalism means emptiness, temperance, prioritizing relationship between people and nature.

Vintage means that we distinguish preservation from the things that need the renovation to keep the building antique.

We secured the feeling of openness by lowing the window ‘ZEROPLACE’s furniture and objet are completed by collabolation with 'creative domestic designer' ‘ZEROPLACE’ keeps collabolation with the domestic designer, and keep discovering talented creator.
