Tokyo Design Exhibitions

COOP HIMMELB(L)AU: Future Revisited Exhibition

Lately I have been having a hard time trying to update the blog because the WiFi connection at home isn't that strong. But I'm finally updating on a few that I have done over the past 4-5 days. First off I went to the COOP HIMMELB(L)AU Future Revisited exhibition at the ICC Tokyo Opera City Center in Shinjiku. The exhibition is about using the human body, mind, and sound to create a architectural space. People can interact with the piece and a part of them will add something to the existing space in the exhibition.


THE OUTLINE: The Unseen Outline of Things

Another exhibition is THE OUTLINE: The Unseen Outline of Things by Naoto Fukasawa & Tamotsu Fujii at the 21_21 Design Sight Tokyo Midtown Design Hub, in Roppongi. The "outline of design", something obvious yet invisible, emerges through the efforts of these two men. This exhibition, including 100 products designed by Naoto Fukasawa and some 70 photographs taken by Tamotsu Fujii over 4 years, is something never attempted before - an exhibition revealing what everyone has sought... the "outline of design" - Naoto Fukasawa.
