Tokyo Design Week 08 held from 30th Oct - 3 Nov, was an annual event during fall for the design/arts enthusiast.

Showcasing the latest and hottest stuff in artful design and designful art in the heart of Japan. Design/arts installations are featured around the town with main exhibition held at the 100% Design tentage located at Jingu Gaien Aoyama.
