Ject One's Innovative Transformation

Ject One, a real estate development and renovation company based in Shibuya, Tokyo, has successfully transformed a long-abandoned property into a valuable community resource. The company recently announced the renovation of a vacant, two-story building over 60 years old located just a minute from Kiyosumi Shirakawa Station in Koto City, which will open as Hinata Acupuncture on May 25, 2026.

The building, which has been empty for more than five years, belonged to an owner who inherited it but had been unable to maintain it due to their need to live in another property. Despite the challenges, the building's prime location made it an attractive option for business rather than residential use. Recognizing this potential, the owner engaged with Ject One through their vacant house solution service "Akisapo," leading to a personalized consultation at a seminar supported by Sumida City.

During the on-site evaluation, Ject One found that the layout lacked bathroom facilities and posed concerns regarding earthquake safety. This discovery indicated that refurbishing as a home would incur significantly high costs. However, given the location's proximity to public transport, the team decided to pursue renovating the property for commercial use. The infusion of Hinata Acupuncture, a well-regarded clinic in the area, as a tenant was seen as the ideal solution to meet local demand.

Strategic Renovations

In preparation for the refurbishment, Ject One collaborated closely with the future tenants to optimize the renovation according to their operational needs. The previous compact entrance and adjacent three-tatami mat Japanese room were reconfigured. The Japanese room was dismantled to expand the entrance area, enhancing guest accessibility. Furthermore, installing glass storefronts significantly boosted visibility from the street, attracting potential customers to the welcoming new exterior.

As the opening date approaches, Hinata Acupuncture aims to provide care grounded in traditional East Asian medicine. The clinic focuses on individualized treatments while creating a soothing environment adorned with relaxing music and fragrances, ensuring a therapeutic atmosphere for patients. By staying open until 9 PM on weekends, the clinic emphasizes accessibility for all clients, offering a consistent and reassuring therapeutic experience.
