We are working with Kobe City to promote the “Suma Aqualife Park and Seaside Park Redevelopment Project,” a core project for creating an international tourism hub in Kobe City through a joint venture represented by our company. The redevelopment project is based on the theme of “Realizing a Seaside Resort Park that Connects the Local Community and Tourists.” We are working to create a place and system that will generate diverse connections and interactions by blending together a community park that enhances the convenience and comfort of the park that everyone loves with a destination resort that aims to attract tourists. In preparation for its opening in June 2024, we aim to make the park a place where diverse people, including citizens and tourists, can gather and spend a rich time in the future, taking advantage of the scenery and local characteristics that have been loved by citizens for many years.

In order to clearly express the image of “Suma Seaside Park,” we have created a new logo design using the four colors that make up the park's scenery (pine forest, sandy beach, sea, and sky). The names “Kobe Suma Sea World” and “Kobe Suma Sea World Hotel” were chosen with the aim of promoting “Sea World,” which embodies the world-class marine world of Kobe Suma, both domestically and internationally as a way to revitalize the area. The aquarium also deliberately did not create a logo, instead opting to create a new typeface with a motif of marine life. A system was created that allows the new typeface to be used to communicate a message, expressing its uniqueness that sets it apart from other facilities. The hotel also uses a new typeface that emphasizes the image of the ocean and flowing water.

GRANVISTA Hotels & Resorts Co., Ltd. is engaged in the operation of recreational facilities including aquariums, golf courses, and restaurants at highway rest areas with the aim of helping promote and stimulate local tourism, namely by developing new community hubs and improving the value of existing facilities.
