We are now accepting applications for the forum "Designing Tokyo as a Wooden City in 2040 from Marunouchi"!
Main event of "TOKYO WOOD TOWN 2040 Mountains, Trees and Tokyo" held on May 7, 2024
GOOD DESIGN Marunouchi will be holding a special exhibition "TOKYO WOOD TOWN 2040 Mountains, Trees and Tokyo" from Thursday, April 18th to Sunday, May 19th.
The main forum for this special exhibition will be held on Tuesday, May 7th, titled "Designing Tokyo, the Wooden City in 2040, Starting from Marunouchi." The forum will focus on Tokio Marine Group's New Head Office Building (scheduled for completion in fiscal 2028), a 100-meter-tall urban wooden structure that will be the world's largest in terms of the amount of wood used. Discussions will be held amongst business leaders, designers, developers and researchers on the future relationship between cities and trees, and the role of cities in maintaining a cycle between mountains and trees.
The panelist will be Tadashi Yoshihara, General Manager of Structural Engineering Department and Head of the Wood Building Lab in the R&D Promotion Division of our company.
If you are interested in the vision of cities beyond the 2030s, and in designs that create circulation in both mountain and urban economies, please apply.
