| HIPPO HOUSE consists of the
first letters of the following words.
Human
International
Peaceful
People's
Oasis
We named our house HIPPO HOUSE, reflecting our wish that this
house will be a peaceful space where people gather from around
the world. Hippo is an abbreviation of hippopotamus and hippopotamuses,
like pigeons, evoke the image of something serene and content.
So, our logo of a hippopotamus was designed.
People are coming to HIPPO HOUSE from various countries of
the world. Here is an international atmosphere for those who
want to polish their languages and those who aim at doing
international businesses and activities.
