The Narrative

teamLab Forest Fukuoka (located next to PayPay Dome) is an interactive museum split into two distinct zones: the Catching and Collecting Forest and the Athletic Forest. Visitors use a custom smartphone app to 'catch' virtual three-dimensional animals on the walls and study them, while the Athletic Forest features complex physical structures like bumpy floors and balance beams to engage spatial awareness.

Why It Matters

teamLab Forest mixes educational technology with physical coordination. It encourages active movement, spatial training, and tactile engagement rather than just passive observation.

What Makes It Special

Using a smartphone app to throw virtual nets at digital animals projected on the walls and catching them to create your own digital catalog.
