Someone needs to designate October as “culture month” in Tokyo. Almost every artistic discipline has offered up a major event in the capital this month: Tokyo Fashion Week, Tokyo International Film Festival, Red Bull Music Academy — day planners are full.

The event, organized by the Design Association and supported by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, has grown enormously over its 29-year existence. This year it has invited artists of all genres and from more than 20 different countries to take part.
