On July 1 (Sat), a new store "DOMICILE TOKYO" will open in Harajuku, Tokyo.
The concept of the store is to continue to develop pop-ups for limited periods of time, and the store design concept created by YOSHIROTTEN is a "futuristic Japanese minka".
The courtyard of this renovated old private house is paved with stones imported from Kozushima in the Izu Islands, and a metallic deer scarecrow is placed in the center of the courtyard. The interior of the store respects the original wood texture and architectural style, but is infused with a cyberpunk mood throughout.
The shop takes the Japanese sense of beauty from the outside and rework it from an angle never seen before. I have never seen a store that has swung so far out of its comfort zone.
The first pop-up to open will be a T-shirt pop-up curated by Gateway, a project by the LQQK STUDIO crew, and will feature original items released by AWGE, the creative agency started by A$AP Rocky, as well as caps and T-shirts rarely available in Japan. The pop-up will feature original items released for the first time by AWGE, a creative agency started by A$AP Rocky, as well as caps and T-shirts that are rarely available in Japan. There will also be many limited edition items.
The cool mismatch of American underground curated in a Japanese-style space is nothing short of amazing.
To celebrate the opening, Eric Elms will design special limited edition items. Eric Elms, Joe Garvey and Jack Greer of Look Studio, Conor Prunty of HUMBLE, and others will be in Japan for the opening party.
Speaking of summer? Yes, T-shirts. Please procure your T-shirts here. We recommend that you do so as early as possible.
