9/21 (Sun) DESIGNEAST 05 opens in Arita – Saga

mv04
DESIGNEAST is an event on design based in Osaka. This year, for its fifth edition, the event will travel to Hamamatsu, Tokyo, Arita and Shodoshima. Like a camp site, inside the event will take place fieldworks, talk events and various projects. This week end, on Sunday September 21st, is the turn of Kyushu, where the event will be in Arita, Saga Prefecture. The members of DESIGNEAST, active in the foremost lines of every field, architecture, graphic, editing, fashion, product design, are coming to Arita along with all the visitors.

For this event I personally made the logo, the main visual and the web site (Tumblr).
Arita is close to the town of Hasami, that hosts “thought”, the event presented also in FEATURE inside this website. DESIGNEAST will start right the day following the last day of “thought”, so if somebody is interested in that, how about going also to this event? I believe the theme of DESIGNEAST fits the interests of the readers of CENTRAL right well.

It’s an event thought for who stays in the town, where talks go on all the night, but a one-day trip is also possible. The next day, a tour in Arita is an option (for many reasons I participate only to the main event).
