MOMA Store Tokyo Opens

26 December 2007, 17.44 | Posted in stores | No comments »

MOMA Store TokyoThe MOMA stores in NYC have always been special and an adventure to lurk through. On every trip to the big Apple its a must see, because most likely you will come across the most interesting new design objects from around the globe. The mix is what really makes it special in the end. Because they carry both the big shot designers, and somebody totally unknown that just had a good idea.

After operating 3 stores in New York, they have now finally expanded outside the US and opened their first overseas store. Where else but Tokyo could it have been (via The Japan Times). Apparently its a collaboration with electronics brand Sanyo.

We are happy to see this happening, it gives us hope, that Europe will maybe also get one any time soon!

LOCATION:

GYRE Shopping Complex

Tokyo/Japan

Muji – The Civilized World Finds A Refuge

Muji NYC Flagship Store

The New York Times has a nice new article up about the recently opened Muji Flagship Store in Manhattan – The Civilized World Finds A Refugee.

“Muji’s bright cube-room on Broadway takes all the ugliness out of shopping. A refined combination of Kate’s Paperie, Uniqlo, Bed Bath & Beyond and the Container Store, it is the folded-down, crisp origami essence of a superstore. Everything here seems a necessity — stationery, bedding, flatware, rain gear — so that for once in your consumer holiday journeying, you can shop for gifts and convince yourself you are not being a slop pig.”

A.P.C. Daikanyama Homme Store

APC Daikanyama Flagship Store Japan

A.P.C. recenty renovated their Daikanyama Homme store in Japan and to do so they worked with famed Japanese architects from Wonderwall. Wonderwall has worked on many high profile projects, from most Bape stores around the globe to the recent Uniqo Flagship Store in NYC and many others.

Once again the architect perfectly translated the brands feel and image into the store. The mix of glass, concrete and warm woods, along with the contrasting industrial steel tubes turned out to be a great space.

Other A.P.C. stores around the globe have a different feel though. The NYC, Paris and Berlin flagship stores all have used wooden floors, antique wood applications, overall straight lines. The new Daikanyama store certainly seems more modern than the rest of them. Let’s see if we will see that also in future stores.

After the jump many more pictures of the beautiful space.
