Wako Co., Ltd., the specialty department store situated in Tokyo‘s Ginza shopping district, has announced the completion of a new space, part of an extensive remodelling project for its flagship location.
The visionary design of a new space, led by artist Hiroshi Sugimoto and architect Tomoyuki Sakakida of the New Material Research Laboratory, introduces an immersive experience centred around the concept of the “Theatre of Time”.
At the heart of the renovated space lies the “Stage,” an architectural marvel reminiscent of giant clock hands. The basement floor has been thoughtfully designed as a haven for designers, craftspeople and visionaries at the forefront of the fashion, jewellery and modern art.
This curated space honours Japan’s rich cultural heritage while also showcasing innovative brands that push the boundaries of creativity and design.
