Among the satellite shows during Tokyo Designers Week was architecture practice Klein Dytham's 'Elephant in the Grass' installation at Dover Street Market Ginza, a celebration of the 80th anniversary of Alvar Aalto's iconic 'Stool 60'
东京设计师周开始了一个摇摇欲坠的开始,地震的震动和暴雨把青山遗址变成了泥浴。这是一个不祥的预兆:现在的第二十八年,旨在收集来自世界各地的“优秀设计”的事件似乎更多地是针对当地市场的商业活动,而不是国际设计庆典。
这可能是因为这次活动(在十天内举行,把这个名字变成更不恰当的名称)被制片人和创始人川崎健二(Kenji Kawasaki)改名为“创意节”。今年,他在万圣节主题活动、当代艺术(有着不幸的格言“让我们买艺术吧!”)、音乐工作坊和英国啤酒节的混合中加入了大量的艺术和音乐。
幸运的是,仍有一些设计宝石有待发现,尽管它们位于日本厕所制造商东藤(Toto)的展位等不太可能的地方。
与近年来一样,生态设计的特色是回归了世奎亭,以及它对紧凑生活的憧憬。
2013年秋季系列的特色是一张可扩展的书桌和沙发,采用低调的灰色和白色色调。
其他有趣的形式跟随功能包括:Bordbar将经典的飞机手推车重新想象为家庭的高效存储空间;挪威设计师bjorn Bye的旅游友好型钩子;和Takayuki Kaai的双功能应急头盔和现代椅子,在上午的地震中恰到好处。
通常是一个创造性的亮点,展览的商标货物集装箱,展示了未来的前景,新兴设计师,是一个混合袋。一个必须看到的是斯拉克电路由阿历克斯克尼佐和日本滨田的东京演播室_01。
创始人马克·戴瑟姆(Mark Dytham)和阿斯特丽德·克莱因(Astrid Klein)重新诠释了五种新高度的经典轻量级凳子(最高超过2米),英国艺术家斯蒂芬妮·奎尔(Stephanie Quayle)在商店的永久象形雕塑周围像草一样
其他强有力的作品包括21-21“设计景观”(Design Sight)对设计博物馆角色的思考,它回顾了日本人明子茂山(Akiko Moriyama)、佐藤隆(Taku Satoh)和福泽野藤(Naoto Fuazawa)的设计作品;设计师肯尼亚·哈拉(肯尼亚·哈拉)的“狗的建筑”(Architecture For Dogs)在Ma画廊展出;建筑师柳集·藤村(Ryuji Fujimura)的“中城地下城”(Midtown Dun@@在靠近东京主要设计师周的青山高端购物区,在“任何东京”展览中都可以找到许多珍宝,其中包括一系列由外挂设计的玻璃器皿,以及Fumie Shibata和Sakai Sangyo的“分层木”长椅。
