This year's Tokyo Designers Week's main event at Meiji Jingu-Gaien has had a bit of a makeover. As "Creative Fes," it now includes a music venue, various food stalls and a market of hand-crafted goods. But, of course, the main focus remains design, and the event's new Asia Awards, which includes categories for design schools, young creators and professionals, pulled in plenty of entries.

From architectural constructions to jewelry, we took a look at what the students and pros had to offer, as well as perused our old favorite — Designboom Mart. This year, we also found an extra favorite spot: the TAPAS Spanish Design for Food exhibition, which not only made us hungry for more, but proved that design can have a great sense of humor.
