What Is FrameSynthesis's Kichijoji Spatial Lab and Can Visitors Go There?

Updated

Kichijoji Spatial Lab is FrameSynthesis Inc.'s development base in Kichijoji, Tokyo, set up for VR demos and meetings. It is not a public showroom with open hours — the company says visits can be arranged by reaching out through its About page, and it also uses the space to host community meetups for XR developers and creators.

What the lab is

FrameSynthesis describes itself as a Tokyo-based content production and systems development company with particular strength in VR. When it moved its head office to Kichijoji in December 2025, it noted that it was preparing demos at the new office and asked anyone interested in a visit to get in touch via the About page.

So the lab serves two overlapping purposes:

  • A working development base — used for VR demos and internal or client meetings.
  • A community venue — used for XR meetups and networking.

Maps and directions are published on a dedicated page rather than in the main site navigation.

Can you visit?

Yes, but not by simply walking in. The site's own wording is that visits are arranged by contacting the company through the About page. There is no indication of public opening hours, ticketing, or drop-in access, so treat a visit as something you request in advance rather than a scheduled public attraction.

If your goal is to see a demo or discuss a project, the practical path is:

  1. Go to the About page on framesynthesis.com.
  2. Send a message explaining what you want to see or discuss.
  3. Wait for a reply confirming whether and when someone can meet you at the Kichijoji office.

The meetup side: Kichijoji Spatial Lab #1

The clearest evidence of how the space is used is the first event held there. On Sunday, June 14, 2026, FrameSynthesis hosted Kichijoji Spatial Lab #1, a meetup for XR developers and creators at its office. Fourteen people attended, with mini talks and networking covering VR film, 3D scanning, and avatars.

That format tells you what to expect from the lab as a venue: small, developer-oriented gatherings rather than large public events. If you follow FrameSynthesis's news page, future editions of the meetup are the most likely route for an outside visitor to get inside without a one-to-one appointment.

How it fits into FrameSynthesis's wider activity

The lab is one part of a company that also produces and supports XR work. Notable items from its news page include:

Date Activity
June 2026 Hosted Kichijoji Spatial Lab #1 (14 attendees)
March 2026 Sponsored and exhibited at TOKYO INDIE GAMES SUMMIT 2026

The company also publishes browser-playable projects such as a 3D Driving Simulator on Google Maps and Landolt Wars, and says it has started posting event reports and development updates on note.

Bottom line

  • What it is: FrameSynthesis's Kichijoji development base for VR demos and meetings.
  • Can you go: Yes, if you arrange it in advance via the About page — it is not an open public space.
  • Best route for outsiders: Watch the news page for the next Kichijoji Spatial Lab meetup, or contact the company directly about a demo or meeting.
  • Where to find directions: The dedicated map and directions page linked from the site.
