Design Ground 55 is an interior Design studio based in Osaka, Japan. Founded in 2007 by founder Kumamoto Seiji, the studio focuses on a wide range of Design projects from hotels and restaurants to residential buildings. Kumamoto Seiji was born in Amami, Kagoshima, Japan, in 1975. He graduated from the School of Arts, University of East Asia in 1997.

隈元誠司的设计理念体现在：如何用独特的材料来展示日本的特色。他常常专注于纹理细节和选择传统材料方面，努力创造一个令人放松的环境。他试图在保留日本传统的同时打破它，创造新的东西。在处理日式设计时，他特别注重材料和灯光，保持一种冷静而独特的氛围。为了给人一种现代的印象。

Kumamoto Seiji's design philosophy is how to use unique materials to show the characteristics of Japan. He often focuses on textured details and the choice of traditional materials in an effort to create a relaxing environment. He tried to break the Japanese tradition and create something new while preserving it. When dealing with Japanese-style design, he pays special attention to materials and lighting to maintain a calm and unique atmosphere. To give a modern impression.

对 隈元誠司来说，日式空间的关键是：独特的美感是一个基础。他表示： ““Wabi-Sabi”，不使用很多装饰来创造空间。每当他感到失落的时候，他总会看到京都的传统建筑和真实的细节。在一些餐饮或者商业空间复制传统的日本风格是很有挑战性的，因为有很多规则。

For Kumamoto Seiji, the key to Japanese-style space is this: the unique aesthetic is a foundation. He considers“Wabi-Sabi,” and create space without using many ornaments. Whenever he felt lost, he would always see the traditional architecture and the authentic details in Kyoto. It is challenging to reproduce traditional Japanese style in the restaurant or business space because there are many rules.

即使在极具挑战性的情况下，隈元誠司也试图去分析日本设计的元素，思考哪一部分具有“日本性”。他还认为，如果人们知道如何选择合适的木材，如何使用空间，以及如何使用灯光，就可以不用典型的格子或日本的Washi纸来展示日本风格。”

However, even in the most challenging circumstances, Kumamoto Seiji tried to analyze the elements of Japanese design and consider which part has “Japaneseness.” He also thinks people can show the Japaneseness without using typical lattices or Japanese ‘Washi’ papers if they are aware of how to choose appropriate wood, how to use the spaces, and how to use the lights.
