  • Design Gallery

    I also stopped by the Design Gallery at Matsuya Ginza. The current show, “Matsuya and Good Design: Its Activities and the Japan Design Committee,” includes a look at the gallery’s past exhibitions and items that have been featured in the adjacent Design Collection retail space. That wall you see in the photo is covered in…

  • Bishin Jumonji

    I stopped by the Guardian Garden gallery the other day in Ginza to catch the Bishin Jumonji exhibition (ends today). The show there is actually an extension of the show on at Creation Gallery G8, and that’s the one I preferred.

  • Travel Cafe

    I found myself in Kasumigaseki the other day, and needed a cafe to rest for a bit, and ended up in this branch of the Travel Cafe chain. Can’t say that it’s particularly special as far as cafes go, but the toast with ham and cheese I had was quite decent. The coffee? I couldn’t…

    Last week I was at the Shin-Marunouchi Building to have lunch at Rigoletto with my wife, and checked out Nagi Noda, Shinji Konishi, and Asami Nemoto’s “Animal Behavior” hair hat exhibition (it’s on the Marunouchi House floor). It runs until May 6. Pictured above, a tote bag being sold featuring Nagi Noda’s Hanpanda.

I wanted to go and chat with Mike Mills —…

  • Art Space Tokyo Launch

    Congrats to the Chin Music Press crew for the crowded book launch of ART SPACE TOKYO this past Tuesday. If you haven’t ordered a copy yet, then it’s off to the AST site you go. I predict this will become their best-selling book. Yeah, it’s that good.

The exhibition includes 60 designs, which make up a collection of favorites from all 5 series of Speakerdog paper toys that have been released so far. If you love what you’re seeing…
