TOSTEM - Chirai Furniture & Hardware

A rare design encounter awaits in Tokyo, where the TOSTEM Asia Design Award 2025 winners will gather to share vision and inspiration. We are proud to welcome Yo Shimada, one of Japan’s most visionary architects and founder of Tato Architects, for an exclusive talk session: “Designing the In-Between.” Shimada’s work is never just about building homes,it’s about reshaping how people live and experience the everyday. His philosophy of turning simplicity into something profound has earned him international acclaim and some of architecture’s most respected honors. Since establishing his Kobe-based practice in 1997, he has continually redefined how architecture responds to life’s subtle conditions,transforming limitations into possibilities and elevating ordinary moments into spaces of meaning. For our winners, this will be a rare chance to step into the perspective of a true master and discover how design can move beyond walls to touch the way we live, think, and connect.
