Future Project

Future of Life
Co-creation Project
2025

This is a co-creation project by members with diverse backgrounds. As possibilities expand more and more through the development of technology, we joined with companies to take a look at what society and life might be like in fifty years’ time from a range of viewpoints, including living, towns, health, mobility, and work.

At co-creation meetings of the seven partner companies, we searched for the “future of life” from a broad perspective by having the people responsible at each company creating the next generation share opinions with the producer, researchers, creators, and other corporations.

We have shown what we imagine the Osaka of the future might look like, setting it in Senri-Chuo.

“Senri-Chuo was created for Expo ’70 some fifty years ago. Fifty years from now, the Tower of the Sun from that expo will still remain, a symbol of the town that stands out even more than it does today as a historical structure.

Here, we have buildings and rural landscapes co-existing close together. Greenery and nature stand out more than inorganic buildings. A landscape full of nature spreads out around. The buildings are future wooden structures, curved, using natural timber. Roads and rails run both above-ground and underground, in an artificial foundation, creating a 3D traffic network that blends into the townscape.”
