City and Resident Design Conference
What can we do now to create a city that creates new value?
At NTT Urban Development, we are sincerely addressing this question by anticipating social changes and pioneering the future through design.
Recently, with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, people's awareness is changing in many ways. How should we approach urban development?
In response to such questions, we have launched the "City and Resident Design Conference" in collaboration with Yomiko Advertising Inc. and the Urban Living Research Institute.
In the first project, we will hold a dialogue with the editors-in-chief of three urban-related magazines to explore the challenges that future urban development will face.

#01 Kick-off Roundtable
Prior to the dialogue with the magazine's editor-in-chief, a kick-off roundtable discussion was held among members of both companies.

#02 What does an emotional city look like?
Kenichi Shiota, editor-in-chief of Shoten Kenchiku, has been observing Japan's commercial spaces for over half a century.
How do changes in urban space reflect human psychology? What does an "emotional city" look like that responds to those desires? What is a "space that conveys feelings"? We will consider future urban development.
