Tokyo Design Festival : Midtown Design Touch 2019

Roppongi Color Canyon

Enjoying a book in the "Color Canyon"

The first thing that may be on everyone's to-do list is to see the "Roppongi Color Canyon". Designer SPREAD has created a world full of vivid colors, made
using mesh fabric spanning over approximately 80m.

The concept is “becoming immersed in scenery”, so be ready to lose yourself in this vibrantly colored scenery. You'll be hard-pressed finding anything similar to this dynamic canyon.

Period: October 18 (Fri) – November 4 (Mon, Holiday)
*Cancelled in the event of bad weather
Time: 11:00 – 21:00
Location: Midtown Garden

Enjoying the "Moment"

Wind up close

Visualizing the motion of wind can be difficult, but the "Moment" sculpture has captured just that. With the help of man-made machines, the shape of wind at a single moment in time has been captured, data extrapolated, then expressed in the form of a sculpture. Something invisible and typically unfathomable can now be seen by the naked eye.

This type of beauty is ever-present, but unseen. Something to consider next time you see a breeze enveloping a forest.

Period: October 18 (Fri) – November 4 (Mon, Holiday)

Time: 11:00 – 21:00

Beyond Watchmaking exhibition entrance

The dial of time

Luxurious Swiss watch brand "Audemars Piguet" brings us an exhibition in a giant 30x45m pavilion. Consisting of twelve rooms set up like the dial of a watch, the exhibition will showcase more than 150 models, including vintage watches as well as the latest models.

The mechanical intracacies of watches is an art in itself. Not focusing on the outcome and accuracy of time, but taking a look at how time comes to be is where the art lays. As they say, "Only time will tell".

Period: October 19 (Sat) - November 4 (Mon, Holiday)
Time: 11:00 – 19:30
*15:00 – 20:00 on October 19
*Last entry 30 minutes before closing
