THE ARCHITECTUAL DESIGN
Out basic concept on the architectual creation is expressed as a word of ENKA.
ENKA signifies "House of ENs" which bears triple meanings of Relationship, Circle and Banquet.
A project begins with Relationship of a client and an architect, then it grows up into EN of Circle
meanings a unity of many people engaging in the construction for the same purpose.
This EN of Circle transforms into EN of Banquet celebrated by the people at the completion of
buildings.
Thus a chain reaction of ENKA is concluded; EN of Relationship → EN of Circle → EN of Banquet.
Furthermore, this EN of Banquet will produced a new EN of Relationship.
This concept is defined as ENKA.
