Fiona / Artist / Ireland
We came here last year and there seems to be less artists than before, but it is a good mix and a variety of work on show. We collected a lot of cards and made a number of contacts.

Yuriko Nishimura / Kindergarten Student / Japan
They came to Design Festa to see where their Host Child works. It is interesting and weird, we can feel the young energy, Yuriko-chan was scared by the dark area and naked legs upstairs, but really enjoyed the videos!

It's my second time here and I think it's interesting. I like the creative people, variety and that at Design Festa you can see every genre of art.

I saw the Design Festa advertisement in the Metropolis magazine. It is very innovative and I`ve seen lots of good stuff & design, it`s just a bit expensive for me.

I am staying in Japan for 10 days. I came for Design Festa with other artists, and we are staying in Sakura House. It is such a great experience! Lots of things to see, lots of different kinds of art. The Japanese design is awesome, everything is interesting!

Dominique / Writer / France
I came here three years ago, and I think it gets always better. There are so many things to do and to see and to buy! You never leave the place without gifts for friends.

"I've been here many times because friends of mine are working here. Nothing really changes. I want more change and concentration."

I am here to meet up with Japanese and interesting designers. DF was the original inspiration for Tokyomade online shop. I decided to support creation and design and get it out to the rest of the world!

I read about DF in Lonely Planet and on the internet. There is so much creativity here. I love that people are selling postcards. But I needed more time, I have only one day. So next year, I hope to come again.
