Scope Interior Design

Area 2,400 m²

A playful, colour-driven renovation of 2,400 m² across one of Japan's leading international schools — designed to inspire creativity and collaboration at every age.

Vyvial & Co. were engaged to renovate a portion of the Canadian Academy campus in Kobe, one of Japan's leading international schools. The project scope includes the redesign of approximately 2,400 m² of interior space, encompassing teaching facilities, a new gymnasium, music rooms, and a dedicated staff room.

The design reimagines the existing facilities to better serve the school's evolving needs. A key focus is creating a playful, welcoming interior environment that fosters creativity, collaboration, and student well-being. Carefully selected materials, vibrant colours, and adaptable spatial layouts are used to support a range of learning styles and age groups, while ensuring the spaces remain functional, durable, and future-ready.
