NE apartments, Tokyo

Architects Yuji Nakae, Hirofumi Ohno, and Akiyoshi Takagi have built an eight unit complex built in a C-shape for motorcycle enthusiasts. tenants enter from a communal "alley" and park inside their apartments, which are equipped to hold their bikes in the bottom level. leave it to the japanese to always come up with the coolest shit. bikes + good design = sign me up. (Stop it right now)

Purple Diary [ April 9 ] : Shopping

OLYMPIA in Japan : Crayon House in Omotesando. My favorite bookshop in Tokyo. It’s an international kids bookshop and has a great selection of vintage childrens’ books (which I collect), I am always the only one in there without a pram! There is also a weird organic restaurant in the basement. Olympia Le-Tan
