In Tokyo, teamLab refers to a group of highly popular interactive digital art exhibitions, most notably teamLab Borderless at Azabudai Hills and teamLab Planets in Toyosu. These exhibitions combine digital technology, light, and motion to create immersive environments where visitors actively interact with the artwork as they move through the space.
Choosing the “best” teamLab location depends on personal taste, but many visitors recommend teamLab Borderless and teamLab Planets in Tokyo as the most iconic experiences. Borderless offers a vast, exploratory world of interconnected artworks, while Planets focuses on immersive physical sensations, such as walking through water and light-filled spaces.
At present, teamLab does not have many permanent exhibition spaces in the United States. Compared with Japan and other parts of Asia, teamLab’s presence in the U.S. has mostly taken the form of temporary or touring exhibitions held in museums or galleries. For example, teamLab works have appeared in cities such as New York, but these were exhibition-based projects rather than long-term, permanent museums like those in Tokyo.
One of teamLab’s newest permanent locations is teamLab Borderless: MORI Building DIGITAL ART MUSEUM at Azabudai Hills in Tokyo. This new museum opened in February 2024 and replaces the former Borderless location in Odaiba, offering a redesigned space in the city center.
