③赤坂・南青山エリア

The Beni Museum is a museum operated by the last Beniya "Isehan" that has been in operation since the Edo period. The history and culture of makeup, as well as the techniques of making red that have been inherited from the time of its founding in the 8th year of Bunsei (1825) to the present day, are open to the public along with a number of materials. In the attached experience zone, in addition to trying out red, you can also learn about the wonders of the color unique to red from a scientific approach. The Beni Museum is a space where you can know and learn about "Beni" and experience its beauty.

After Taro Okamoto (best known for the Tower of the Sun built for a world's fair) died, the atelier and home he worked out of for almost 50 years was converted into this memorial museum. The incredibly expressive artworks in the garden and the unfinished canvases that decorate the atelier almost make you feel like Okamoto were still alive. This space that overflows with creative energy will allow you to truly experience the essence of art.

Cherry brassam, sweet peas, etc., the inside of the shop is full of cute and spring-like scented candles that make you want to decorate your room. There is also a candle class, so please join us.

The Japanese confectionery shop has been established in Akasaka for over 100 years. The signboard product is "Akasaka mochi" which wrapped rice cake with small furoshiki. Although this style is now common, it is said that it was born by the ingenuity of Aono third generation. Only carefully selected materials such as red beans, soybeans, brown sugar and salt are used. There is also a service for wrapping paper and seasonal bags tailored to the application.

It is a base of the design network operated by three organizations responsible for design promotion, function, and research and education. We connect people through exhibitions and seminars that present a perspective on the lives and society of the next generation, and think about the future together through design.
