Japanese Design Today

That's the title of a new exhibit at the Japan Information and Culture Center that focuses on products used in everyday Japanese life. Japanese Design Today 100 is a selection of approximately 100 of the finest examples of Japanese design created between the 1990’s and today. Another 13 objects are included from the early postwar years to show the origin of today’s design.

The exhibit continues through February 17 at the JICC, which is in the Lafayette Center III, 1155 21st Street NW. The Center is open Monday to Friday from 9 to 5. Admission is free.
