Business, spaces, and making things.
Though these are different fields of work, throughout my years of experience,
I have consistently shared one guiding perspective: to create a sense of natural comfort, where things come together without feeling forced.

New forms born from the connection of spaces, objects, and people.
A new balance born by adding different textures and a little spice.
Creating happiness that spreads through connection.
This is what Link design – project is about.

Career & Background
After graduating from Tamagawa Gakuen Women’s Junior College, she worked for many years at a Tokyo-based interior shop specializing in direct imports
(at the time operating three stores in Tokyo, one in Yokohama, and one in Osaka, handling furniture, lighting, and decorative items from various countries).
Her responsibilities were wide-ranging and included sales, overseeing visual merchandising across all stores, serving as store manager for the Meguro and Harajuku locations, domestic goods buying, sales promotion planning, staff training, interior styling for LIVES magazine projects, accompanying buying trips to Salone del Mobile Milano, and planning collaborative projects with ikebana artists.
After leaving the company in 2004, she continued to be involved through short-term consulting and commissioned display projects.
She later began working independently as a freelancer.

Link design – project
Founded Link Design Project
Primarily working with businesses (B to B),
I also provide a wide range of services and proposals for private residences (B to C).
Throughout my years of experience, across three different fields—business, spaces, and making things—
I have consistently built my work around the idea of bringing things into balance.
By shaping things so that value and comfort can be naturally conveyed,
I create structures that can continue without feeling forced.
In spatial design, based on your needs and preferences, I bring together colors, materials, and textures
to create spaces that feel comfortable and memorable, whether they involve many elements or take a more simple approach.
