Get behind-the-scenes insights into the design and development of Japan House London’s exhibition Design Discoveries: Towards a DESIGN MUSEUM JAPAN with a special guided tour led by exhibition designer and renowned architect Tane Tsuyoshi.
In addition to designing the exhibition, Tane is also one of the seven featured guest creators invited to consider what to include in its collection of design treasures gathered from across Japan.
During the tour, Tane explains his creative vision for the overall exhibition design while expanding on what design means to him and his belief that principles of design can be found in the early settlements of the Jōmon period, dating back approximately 10,000 years.
The talk begins in front of the Gallery on Japan House London’s lower ground floor promptly at 12:00 and lasts approximately 40 minutes.
Please note that filming and photography may take place at this event. Photos and footage of the event may then be used to promote Japan House London, helping more people to discover what we offer. If you have any concerns, please contact us online or contact a member of the team on site.
