RITZWELL OSAKA

The Ritzwell Osaka Showroom was reopened in 2019 on the 2nd floor of the Dojima River Forum, a complex facility consisting of a multipurpose hall, gallery, cafe, and luxury rental apartments. The interior was designed by Masakatsu Matsuyama, an architect from Fukuoka. Not only the furniture, but also lighting, art, fragrance, and other elements that evoke the image of high-quality comfort are designed throughout. Ritzwell’s aim is to create a rich expression of “beautiful furniture that has a modest yet strong presence.”
