This marks the second overseas study tour in Japan for YINJISPACE.

The term "地点" as a noun simply means "location"; however, as early as ancient Greece, Aristotle interpreted it as a concept about the mutual relationship between humans and their material environment. Due to the involvement of the body, behavior, and perception of individuals, two distinct semantics, namely "地点性" (locality) and "地点感" (sense of place), have emerged. The former emphasizes the characteristics of the geographical environment, while the latter expresses emotional projection onto the geographical environment.

Diverging from other study tour routes, the core purpose of this itinerary is to emphasize locality, practical significance, and a pertinent involvement in the cognitive understanding of "感同身受" (empathy). From Osaka to Tokyo, the focus is on six Japanese design firms. Through their design strategies that consider site, history, environment, contemporary aesthetics, and spatial functionality, the aim is to delve into the logical thinking and social significance behind their works.

This "applicable" methodological approach to design may offer inspiration for us today. From October 30th to November 5th, in a 7-day, 6-night journey, you can join YINJISPACE to immerse yourself in the essence of "地点" (location) itself. Experience, perceive, and learn about the individual differences in current Japanese architecture based on the holistic coordination of site environments—this is what we call "见地" (insight).

Hotel Notes:

The listed hotels in the itinerary are based on double occupancy, with room assignments arranged randomly according to the order of registration. If a participant experiences poor sleep quality, it is recommended to upgrade to a single room. The price difference for the upgraded room is to be borne by the participant.

Visa Notes:

The passport must have at least 6 months of validity remaining after the trip concludes and should have 2 blank visa pages (excluding observation pages). YINJISPACE only collects passports on behalf of participants. The approval of the visa application is at the discretion of the consulate. Any losses (including, but not limited to, self-booked flights or hotel reservations) incurred due to visa rejection are the responsibility of the visa applicant. Once the visa application is submitted, the visa fees are non-refundable, with a processing time of 6-8 weeks.

Insurance Notes:

The insurance provided for this trip is only applicable to participants holding passports issued by mainland China. Participants holding non-mainland China passports are required to purchase their own insurance (self-provided insurance). Any risks and losses incurred due to opting out of insurance coverage will be the responsibility of the participant.
