ABLE & PARTNERS TOKYO DESIGNERS WEEK in MILANO 2014 | teamLab

In Connecting! Train Block, cars and trains run along roads and railroad tracks that are connected by wooden blocks. As children place different blocks on the table, more cars and trains appear, forming a townscape. Children play by placing the blocks in different positions to create a town collaboratively with other children.

This installation consists of three male-connection and three female-connection light cube chairs. Each cube, or block, is a stand-alone chair. The interconnecting blocks can be joined to make a bench, another piece of furniture, or a wall. When the blocks are joined, information passes from one block to another and their color changes. 
Children freely join the blocks to change the design and color of the space. Their actions alone, especially those that change the form and function of the blocks, change the space and give enjoyment. This is the concept of new value in behavior.

All the various fish drawn by everyone swim around in this aquarium.

Color in a fish on the paper provided, and see the picture you have drawn come to life, swimming out into the massive aquarium in front of you together with the fish drawn by other people. If you touch the swimming fish, they will swim away. You can also feed the fish by touching the food bags.

The Tokyo Skytree mural is located on the Fourth floor of Tokyo Skytree®. Ten monitors are embedded in the wall, forming a seamless picture; the images shown on the monitors are digital animation.
In traditional Japanese art, there is no center of focus, there is no fixed time frame, and a vast amount of information is often depicted. This artwork presents Tokyo as a mix of reality and fiction, past and future. The overwhelming amount of visual information contained in this large mural was completely hand-drawn with the support of digital technology.
The city is made up of the stories of each and every person living there. That is what makes Tokyo such an exciting and interesting place. Traditional Japanese screen paintings such as Rakuchu rakugai zu (Scenes in and around the Capital) and Edo-zu byobu (Folding screen picture of Edo) have no central point of focus and are "flat"—everything is depicted with the same degree of importance. The paintings contain detailed visual information, even down to the stories of each person.
We have created this picture of Tokyo as a continuation of the traditional form of artistic expression, incorporating the techniques of Ukiyo-e and reproducing the methods of Edo printing by using the latest digital technology.
Based on our conviction that technological evolution brings about human evolution, this mural exceeds the hand-drawn limitations of picture-making and links the Tokyo of the Edo period to the Tokyo of the future.
