Talking about Tokyo
in Paradigm Shift
The Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) convenes a discussion on the
future of Tokyo, and that of its citizens and their lifestyles, from diverse
viewpoints within and beyond the disciplines of Architecture, Architectural
History, Urban Planning, and Design.
The future of Tokyo moving into
the 21st Century will be different from its past. Whereas demographic growth
and urbanization used to be the precondition of Japan’s capital, projections
indicate that by the year 2020 Tokyo’s population begin to shrink; urbanization
will be both influenced by and asked to negotiate the legacy of the previous
period of economic growth. The population of Tokyo will experience new
conditions, with work styles changing; notions of common spaces and shared
economies spreading; mobility impacting action; and information technology
shifting communications and lifestyles. The central question of this
conversation is, thus: how can urbanism
and architecture contribute to the paradigm shift Tokyo has begun to undergo?
Harvard GSD’s “Tokyo: Future
Cities, Future Citizens” will bring to stage roadmaps for Tokyo proposed by
architects and urban planners, and will ask them to interact with issues and
expectations on the frontlines of mobility and information technology. This
unique event will bring three Harvard GSD leaders into conversation with some
of the most influential scholars and practitioners in Japan, all focused on the
future of Tokyo as an international subject.
