21_21 DESIGN SIGHT Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
21_21DESIGNSIGHT Art Museum is a design exhibition hall and workshop for curatorial planning by fashion designer Issey Miyake, graphic designer Naoto Fukasawa, visual designer Taku Sato and architect Tadao Ando. Officially opened in February 2007. The building itself was designed by Tadao Ando, and the design inspiration happened to come from Issey Miyake's design concept of "a piece of cloth", so it has become one of the "pilgrimage places" for Tadao Ando's loyal fans. The appearance of the museum is low-key and full of design, and the inverted triangular roof composed of two complete steel plates is very eye-catching. Although 70% of the building's overall space is hidden underground, the venue adopts large-scale floor-to-ceiling glass windows, which bring in a lot of natural light, making the two exhibition halls located underground bright and full of comfort. Interestingly, the "21_21" in the name of the museum comes from "20_20vision(sight)" in English, which means perfectvision. The masters hope to use the museum to help people re-examine the essence of design, pay attention to the future of design, and study the potential of design. , look at the things around you from the perspective of design, recreate them, and then show them to the public.

Went there while walking around Roppongi. There was an exhibition once but only managed to visit the store quickly due to time constraints. Although small, well designed and located in a lovely block.
Name 21_21 is taken from Europe and the United States to call excellent vision (perfect vision), extending the original meaning of beyond the realm of ordinary people and the essence of foreseeing the future. Freedom is infinite, everywhere is full of vitality, this is the original intention of the design. Miyako hopes to break the constraints of the framework, work with craft creators in all fields to conceived and provide vision and perspectives for future designs.
From the exterior, if it reflects the architectural aesthetic of the Japanese face of Ando, it now looks more like the face of Miyazaki's life. A piece of cloth is also called from the origin of Miyazaki's life costume design philosophy.
I like the building because it has a unique shape. However, be careful as the order of exhibitions is easy to get messed up.
Tadao Ando's design is small and shocking. The exterior is much better than that in the museum. "We live on as we make decisions. What kind of future are you heading for, " in an exhibition on the theme of Athlete, we think of multiple cosmology.
This building is located in Liubenmu area, belonging to Tadao Ando's works. It has a special appearance, but it complements the surrounding environment. There are many souvenirs about Mr. Ando, including works collection and works.
It seems to cost 1,000 yen, but only 200 yen for pupils. The master's manuscript was very good, and friends from the same trade took almost every picture. The unique art gallery, untamed wild is the theme of the design, it is worth seeing.
