Jil Sander Store
Omotesandō, Tokyo, Japan
2017 – 2018
The design for the store on Omotesandō uses refined geometry to sculpt space, shape patterns of movement and create atmosphere. Gestures are pared to a minimum, with the emphasis falling on a series of immersive sensory encounters with natural materials and elements of borrowed landscape — most powerfully in the play of light on timber, stone and steel, and through the branches and foliage of a mature tree.
