Three ways to work together

Services shaped around your household

Each service is a different kind of session — different scope, different pace, the same attention to how your household actually works. Take your time looking through them.

Back to home

Before you choose

How these services are structured

None of the three services here is a quick drop-in visit. Each is a structured session — or series of sessions — that begins with a review of your specific situation, moves through the project at a pace that lets questions surface, and ends with written materials you keep. A follow-up is scheduled before the session closes.

Smart home devices and connected lighting setup

Service 01

Smart Home Setup Consultation

A guided 75-minute session for households planning a connected lighting, climate, or door-sensor setup.

Conducted online or at your residence within our service areas.

What's included

  • 75-minute consultation (online or on-site)
  • Review of existing devices and compatibility assessment
  • Written placement and wiring plan

What's included

  • Multi-session coaching arrangement
  • Coverage of fixture replacement, surface refinishing, and minor carpentry

Across all three services

What every session includes

Your pace

Sessions slow down when questions come up. There's no fixed schedule to keep to.

Written materials

A plan, sketch, checklist, or set of reference cards — something you keep and can work from independently.

Follow-up scheduled

Confirmed before the session ends, so there's always a known point of return.

Vendor-neutral

Recommendations are based on your situation only — no supplier relationships influence what's suggested.

Not sure which one fits?

A simple way to think about it

Choose Smart Home Setup if...

You're thinking about connected devices but aren't sure where to start, what's compatible with what you already have, or how to approach the installation in stages. Suits households new to home automation as well as those refining an existing setup.

Choose Garden Design Planning if...

You have an outdoor space — balcony, courtyard, or yard — and want a plan that accounts for Japan's climate, your available maintenance time, and what will actually grow in your specific location. Useful for first-time gardeners and those refreshing established beds.

Choose DIY Repair Coaching if...

You'd like to handle everyday household repairs more confidently — loose fixtures, worn surfaces, stuck drawers, minor carpentry — and want to build that capacity at a steady pace with guidance rather than trial and error. Suited for new homeowners, long-term renters, and anyone who feels uncertain around household tools.

1

Send a brief message

Through the contact form — a few lines about the project and your location. You don't need to know which service fits yet; that's part of the conversation.

2

We confirm the details

We'll confirm the service, session format (online or on-site), timing, and anything useful to prepare. No commitment required until you're ready to proceed.

3

The session takes shape

The session runs at your pace. Before it closes, the follow-up is already confirmed. You leave with written materials to work from in your own time.

When you're ready

A short message is all it takes

Tell us what you're working on. We'll outline what a session would look like for your situation and answer any questions before you decide.
