Design Festa, with its hundreds of booths and multitudes of artists, musicians, designers, exhibitionists, and other creative types, always has something eye catching to see. But you need to go in with soft eyes. It's one of the rare places in Tokyo where you'll see more smiles than stony stares. So you need to go in ready to go along for the ride!
Here are some pics of the sights and sounds of Design Festa 36:

There were two tie-em-up S&Mish performance exhibition booths side by side on the 4th floor. Nothing too risquee. Very popular with the crowds!!! |

This tilted a bit further out there on the risquee side. There were far more women in the audience than men. |

That's a wrap for Design Festa 36. Thanks for eyeballin'!!
Yeah, I've gotta say the zombie-esque "stony stares" syndrome is very tiresome, it really is prevalent in Japan.
