Intermediatheque

Next-generation museum created through industry-academia collaboration between Japan Post and The University of Tokyo

  • Cultural Spaces
  • The JP Tower Academic and Cultural Museum "Intermediatheque" is an exhibition space that reconstructs existing resources such as academic specimens, fixtures, and architecture. It is a museum located on the second and third floors of the JP Tower in Marunouchi, Tokyo, and is an industry-academia collaboration between Japan Post and The University Museum. Tanseisha assisted The University Museum with the museum's design and technical management. We would like to introduce this project, which aims to create a museum that goes beyond simply exhibiting academic and cultural assets and functions as an experimental space that combines existing resources and media of expression.
