● Heralbony's "Blue" Artworks Shine Across Tokyo
This co-creation project was realized through the resonance of ideas with various companies, including Heralbony, which aims to create new culture starting from welfare with the mission "Let Your Uniqueness Shine."; Azabudai Hills, aiming for an environment where everyone can live a mentally and physically rich life with the concept of "A city like a 'plaza' embraced by greenery, connecting people"; Tokyo Metro, with the slogan "Become the power that drives Tokyo"; and LIVE BOARD, with the mission "Turn gazes into inspiration. Turn value into society." Furthermore, the project was made possible with the cooperation of Sekisui House, which upholds the global vision "Make 'Our Home' the Happiest Place in the World"; Mizuho Financial Group, with the purpose "Challenge Together. Bear Fruit Together."; and Sumitomo Life Insurance, with the slogan "Strengthening Your Future." We will create a special art space where people can encounter diverse sensibilities by following the "blue" art, each unique, and by enjoying different ways of feeling through "blue" art, we deliver a place to encounter and contemplate someone else's worldview and values beyond differences.
