4. Future use of the current Head Office site
Kyudenko will undertake an intensive study of a joint redevelopment project combining theprevious Head Office site with an adjacent site occupied by Izuka Credit Union’s Fukuoka
Branch. Guided by the basic concept of “creating a lifestyle-oriented business hub that canmeet a diverse range of workstyle needs while realizing coexistence with theenvironment and the local community,” this project will seek to create an environment thatcombines work and private life by taking advantage of the area’s unique mixture of work
locations and residences.
Since its founding, Kyudenko has worked to infuse buildings with life through its principal
business of supplying more comfortable spaces through electricity, air, and water-related
services. The company will contribute to the creation of appealing, dynamic communities bygiving shape to those technological capabilities.
■Illustration of the project’s approach to urban planning
The Kyudenko Group, which continues to embrace the challenges of the future through its
technological capabilities, will use smart buildings and technologies like the Internet of things
and AI to connect the environment, technologies, and people; resolve problems faced by offices
and communities; and create new lifestyles that are sustainable and comfortable beyond thosetechnology-facilitated connections.

*The above illustration is intended to communicate the present concept, which may change as a result of future study.
