The Midtown DESIGN TOUCH Park kicked-off in a wide open grass field in Tokyo Midtown where design can be enjoyed with the five senses. Here, we proposed an open stage on which children and adults alike take part in workshops while having fun. A very long table has suddenly appeared on the lawn. We installed a tabletop running 50 meters in a straight line, as if drawing a horizontal line on the gently sloping grassy field.

The table naturally grows taller as we move along the inclined plane. The structure serves as a symbol for the children’s workshop—it is a floor, a table, a bench, a playground or even a shelter. Various persons come all together around a single 50 meter-long table, discovering various places along the way; places to sit down, to stand up, to lie down or pass under. Like a big family gathered around a picnic table, this is a stage full of smiles where all citizens, young and old, converge to create something new.

这是今年10月28日至11月6日，出现在东京某公园草坪上的一个超级大桌子。这个桌子长50米，在缓坡草坪上绘制出一条水平直线。

这简直就是一个露天的舞台，儿童，成人都参与其中。随着桌面高度的变化，人们可以把桌子当地板用，或就当桌子用，或当成板凳，或当成庇护所。大家围绕在这里，或坐，或站，或躺下，或者是穿越。桌子就像一个神奇的宝贝，让大家汇聚成一个大家庭，让所有的人们，无论年轻还是老迈，都喜笑眉开。这是一个创新之桌。

桌子在场地上存在9天后便被拆除，其材料正在被重新制作成椅子和桌子，用于日本311地震受灾区。

Designed for Tokyo Midtown DESIGNTOUCH, which ran for 9 days during which various workshops for children were held at the table, it was dismantled after the event. All the parts were shipped to Ishinomaki city in Miyagi Prefecture, which was affected by this year’s 3/11 earthquake and tsunami, where all the material are being recycled and reused where needed. This is coordinated by ‘Ishinomaki Koubo’, a organisation which brings together professionals, resources and provides tools for rebuilding efforts. The materials that make up Gulliver Table is now being made into tables and benches needed in the local area.
