What do you do then? Exhibition – Looking at the Future of Disaster Prevention –

From July 4, 2025, 21_21 DESIGN SIGHT will hold a special exhibition titled "What to Do Then?"
The exhibition director is the visual design studio WOW.

We don't know for sure when and where natural disasters will occur. Some people may have a disaster prevention bag on a daily basis, while others may try not to think about it too much.
No matter how much you imagine it, you will not know the moment when you lose your normal daily life unless you actually face it. However, it is a fact that we in Japan, which is known as a disaster-prone country, cannot remain untouched. By not turning away from the existence of disasters that we don't want to think about too much, but by reconsidering how we perceive them, we will be able to see what we should do now and what we should think about.

From the perspective of what a disaster is in the first place, this exhibition will take a broad look at the natural disasters that people have faced, such as understanding the real situation such as data visualization of earthquakes and flood damage, products related to disaster prevention, and projects born in the wake of disasters. In addition, we will unravel how to face disasters from the past, the present, and the future, such as legends about disasters that remain in various regions and research that looks at future possibilities.

There are several "questions" scattered throughout the venue. Depending on the situation, there is no single answer. The correct answer may vary from person to person.
However, if you imagine in advance, see and hear the answers of those close to you, and do not expect the moment, the future may change a little.
Why don't you start preparing yourself for something new?
