The unsightly gas meter next to the entrance is transformed into a highly designed box called "BAKO."
"Hide the gas meter." The gas meter detracts from the first impression of the house... a gas meter cover to solve the incongruity around such buildings.
□ Horizontal and Vertical Design We focused on horizontal and vertical elements. It blends seamlessly with the overall concept of the architecture. □ Protecting the Gas Meter When installed during new construction, BAKO may appear smaller than the gas meters typically seen. This is because the gas meter is installed at a lower position than usual. The recommended height for gas meters is higher due to concerns about water splashing, but by using BAKO, the gas meter can be installed at a lower position. □ Please Remove the Cover During Meter Reading The meter is designed to be invisible from the outside. During meter reading, please pull the cover forward and completely remove it with a "bako" sound. At the first inspection, it may blend in so well with the building that it goes unnoticed, so please inform the service personnel of its presence. □ Suitable for New Builds and Existing Gas Meters The gas meter cover was developed for city gas meters (verified with Tokyo Gas, Osaka Gas, and Toho Gas). During new construction, please specify the installation height of the meter, and it can completely cover the piping. When retrofitting to an existing gas meter, the piping at the bottom of the meter will be exposed, but there are no issues with strength.

★Horizontal and Vertical Design Architecture is composed of horizontal and vertical elements such as floors, walls, and ceilings. I want the meters to extend from that. Because they exist alongside the wall, I was particular about the horizontal and vertical alignment of the gas meter cover as well. It is positioned to harmonize with the overall concept of the architecture; that is BAKO's stance.

★Please remove the cover during the meter reading. The meter is designed so that it cannot be seen from the outside. During the meter reading, please pull the cover towards you and completely remove it with a "pop." During the initial inspection, it may blend in too well with the building and go unnoticed, so please inform the service personnel of its existence.
