On the other hand, the presentation hold by Projector, a producer unite to be well known by UNIQLOCK and BIGSHADOW at Shibuya, was different from other presenter. It was interested for both designers and planners to hear their design philosophy based on projector’s way of work as managing people with ideas rather than making design by hands.

Projector, UNIQLOCK

Projector design a project itself than design one part although its aim and means are different depending on projects like BIGSHADOW, UNIQLOCK, UNIQLOJUMP. “It is more important to examine idea to brush up than finding it.” told projectors.

UNIQLOCK

A project is created when an idea is enhanced and a story become clear, and its way is infinity. For UNIQLOJUMP, YouTube was used for being web site’s name around and finding properly space in Shibuya was key point to make the events successful. We cannot miss what ideas projector creates in the future.
