New York Office Opens to Bridge Japanese Designers and Artists with the World

UNION TEC Co., Ltd., a Tokyo-based interior design and construction company with the mission “Build a new standard,” has opened a representative office in New York, U.S.A., to strengthen its overseas initiatives in art, CG rendering, and spatial design.

Through the New York office, We will work on four key initiatives: sourcing and introducing art from New York, expanding its CG rendering service to the U.S. market, supporting Japanese artists in presenting their work overseas, and creating design and construction projects through alliances with local partners.

The New York office will serve as a connection point between Japan, Asia, and the U.S.
UNION TEC has built relationships with approximately 4,000 designers through its CG rendering service “PersGPT” and design-related initiatives. The company also has a network of nearly 100 artists through its art business.

By establishing a base in New York, We aims to create opportunities for Japanese designers, artists, and creators to connect with overseas markets, while also introducing U.S. art and design to spaces in Japan and Southeast Asia.

Sourcing Art in New York and Introducing It to Japan and Southeast Asia

UNION TEC will work with partners in New York to source unique art pieces and introduce them to offices, commercial spaces, residences, clinics, and hospitality spaces in Japan and Southeast Asia.u003cbru003eThe company aims to enhance the value of spaces by incorporating art that brings new perspectives, stories, and character to each environment.

By leveraging the time difference between the U.S. and Asia, designers in the U.S. can request CG renderings before the end of their workday and review the results the next morning.u003cbru003eThis service is designed to support faster design proposals, smoother client communication, and more efficient project decision-making.u003cbru003eu003ca href=u0022https://www.3drenders.cloud/u0022u003ehttps://www.3drenders.cloud/u003c/au003e

Supporting Japanese Artists in Presenting Their Work Overseas

UNION TEC will support Japanese artists in showcasing their work in New York and Brooklyn.u003cbru003eThe company plans to create opportunities for artists not only to exhibit their work, but also to visit New York, communicate the background and concept behind their work, and connect with local galleries, curators, companies, and audiences.u003cbru003eThrough this initiative, We aims to support Japanese artists who wish to take on international challenges.

Design and Construction Alliances with Local Partners

UNION TEC will promote design and construction projects through collaboration with local partners in New York. The company has designers and project managers with overseas project experience, and will work with local partners to support projects such as restaurants, offices, retail spaces, and Japanese companies entering the U.S. market.u003cbru003eWe will also consider supporting related overseas expansion procedures in collaboration with local partners.

300 7th Street, 2nd Floor
Brooklyn, New York 1121

Brooklyn was selected as the location for UNION TEC’s New York office because it is an area where artists, designers, startups, makers, galleries, restaurants, and fashion-related businesses gather.

The area also has many examples of former factories, warehouses, and industrial spaces being converted into studios, offices, galleries, and event spaces. UNION TEC believes that this environment is highly compatible with its approach to combining art, design, CG rendering, and spatial creation.

Our connection with New York began through our art business.

As we discussed this initiative with people both inside and outside the company, we began to hear voices from Japan saying, “I want to take on challenges overseas,” and “I used to work on overseas projects.” At the same time, we also heard voices from New York saying, “We want to support new challenges from Japan.”

Both I and UNION TEC have always had a strong desire to contribute to the industry. In 2016, we launched a matching platform business for the interior and construction industry. Although the business did not succeed as we had hoped at the time, our desire to contribute to the industry has not changed.

Today, We has grown to a certain scale. Through our design and construction projects, PersGPT, Designer’s Edge, and art sales, we have been able to build relationships with designers and artists that we did not have back then. Our company’s assets and capabilities have also evolved significantly since that time.
We will continue to strengthen our contribution to the industry.

New York is one of the world’s leading centers of business and creativity. The challenge level is extremely high, but we will not be afraid of failure. Together with our members and local partners, we will take on each challenge step by step.

Founded in June 2000 as an interior finishing contractor specializing in wall coverings, flooring, and related works, UNION TEC has developed a spatial creation business that provides comprehensive branding, design, and construction services, primarily for offices and retail spaces. To date, the company has completed more than 10,000 projects.

In 2016, UNION TEC launched a platform business for the construction industry, and in April 2021, spun off its business divisions into separate entities. With a strong focus on interior and spatial design and leveraging its digital expertise, the company currently operates across a diverse portfolio including Workplace Production, Beauty & Medical Clinics, Luxury Residences, Space Construction, Building Value Enhancement, PersGPT, and the Art Business.
