- QUON
QUON is a modern reinterpretation of geta (traditional Japanese wooden sandals), crafted from recycled textile waste. Unlike conventional wooden geta, QUON is quieter when walking and features vibrant textures that expand its role in fashion. Its replaceable sole design enhances durability while promoting higher textile recycling rates through continued use.
- Botac
With the opening of the Chūō Shinkansen (Maglev) in sight, urban redevelopment is progressing in Hashimoto, Sagamihara, Kanagawa Prefecture. The city promotes a vision called “Hashimoto—where the Linear connects people to a step-ahead future,” planning integrated development of the station and surrounding area. Against this backdrop, a collaborative project called Botac has launched, led by Keio Corporation, Green Display Co., Ltd., and Konel Inc.. By using plant-based power generation, the initiative reimagines the station as an environment that evolves through citizen participation. It serves as a symbolic project that aims to transform Hashimoto into a “laboratory for the future.”
