Culture Convenience Club Co., Ltd. (Head office: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Muneaki Masuda; hereinafter referred to as CCC) will open the Kashiwa-no-ha T-SITE in Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture on March 2, 2017.
Kashiwa-no-ha T-SITE, which appears to be a series of five triangular-roofed houses, stands on the banks of the Aqua Terrace, a waterfront space whose construction was completed in November last year. The park aims to be a place that local residents will want to visit every day.
Kashiwa-no-ha T-SITE's main theme is "proposing lifestyles for families with children," in line with its location in Kashiwa-no-ha Smart City, a collaboration between the public, private, and academic sectors, and the surrounding area, where many families with children live.
The second floor of the two-story Kashiwanoha T-SITE is a "T-SITE for Children" and is home to the T-KIDS Shared School, which offers children's books and 21st century learning. The first floor is home to a book and magazine section to help you enrich your life and mealtimes with family and loved ones, as well as restaurant tenants. The three separate buildings will house shops offering outdoor sports that allow visitors to interact with nature.
