It’s also interesting to discover booths that have clearly set themselves apart from others among that chaos. You can find the one you are really satisfied withーfashionable ceramic art, cute character goods, or striking DJ’s play.

I wondered why there’s a lot of people who got tied in the train back. Some walked off their legs on the really large site, but others were tired by all the new art and the never-knew/experienced expressions.

Having expressed the cutting edge art of the moment each time, Design Festa is going to reach Vol.30 next time. However, it’s not trying to look back on the Asian culture of past 15 years. It has always sent out the Japanese culture with a lot of energy, and the chaotic world caused by the energy would never be fade away.
