The MACHINAMI Foundation
Profile:

Our Purpose
Today, as people seek greater comfort in their lives, they have extremely high expectations regarding the improvements they desire in the quality of their homes-the focal point of their lives-and the surrounding residential environment. Moreover, the greater amount of free time people have now and the longer life spans suggest that homes and residential environments will come to possess an ever greater significance in our lives.
The MACHINAMI Foundation was established in 1979, at a time when the emphasis in Government housing policy was shifting from quantity to quality, including the quality of residential environments. The foundation's purpose is thus to work to enhance the quality of homes and residential environments.
