Entry theme (category)

Culture Design
Ideas for new urban culture creation
Categories for exploring new cultural arts such as music, literature, art, cuisine, and sports. Ideas that utilize art or new art itself are acceptable. Culture and art are essential for human life. I would like to pursue the possibilities of culture and art and implement them in society.

Woman's Wellness
Ideas that lead to the creation of a society where women can shine
A category that considers social actions to create a society where all women living today can face their hearts and bodies. I would like to create an action that makes every day more comfortable and the world warmer from the city of Shibuya.

Play Diversity
Ideas to promote a diverse society and a tourist city
This category considers ideas for promoting a society and tourism city where everyone, including children, young people, seniors, people with disabilities, LGBT people, and foreigners, can be themselves. I would like to think about the possibilities of society and cities from various perspectives and give shape to them.

U19
Under 19 years old
The U19 division is a division for those under the age of 19 to apply. There is no genre, please apply freely. We established this division because we believe that the younger people are, the closer they are to the future, and the issues and ideas that emerge from them are special. *Can be duplicated with other categories

Good aging
Over 55 years old
The Good Aging category is open to applicants over the age of 55. There is no genre, please apply freely. In a few years from now, the average age will exceed 50, and in Japan, a super-aging society, the perspectives and ideas of senior citizens will become even more important. This division was established with the aim of implementing them in society.

NOVUS FUTURE DESIGN AWARD 2021 Grand Prize "Gourmet guide without pictures"

Comments from winners Shohei Okawa (right) and Shun Kitaura (left)

The two of us have entered various idea competitions before, but we had doubts about continuing to create projects that never materialized. Because of this, I applied for the "NOVUS FUTURE DESIGN AWARD" award-winning project with great expectations that Shibuya Ward would provide a field for implementing ideas.
When I was thinking about the project, I went to an association where people with visual impairments actually gather, and when I had them look at the project in the middle, I went out to eat with everyone, and there were people who were blind or had difficulty seeing. They were happy with this project, and the words they came up with were unique, and various ideas came to my mind. rice field.
Shibuya has a better understanding of taking on new challenges, and I'm surprised that so many people are supporting this project. I would like to send out various ideas from Shibuya Ward and increase the number of people who think "Shibuya Ward is good" or "Shibuya Ward should be the first place in Japan."
