We are delighted to announce that we have opened our second Tokyo store on Renga Dori in the Ginza.
This compact space has been designed by Jo Nagasaka of Schemata Architecture in collaboration with Aesop Creative Manager Hiroko Shiratori. Jo Nagasaka also created Aesop Aoyama, our first Japanese signature store.
Jo Nagasaka has chosen red brick as the primary material for the interior of the Ginza store as a nod to the street's informal name – Red Brick Street – and to explore the possibilities of a utilitarian material uncommon in Japan. The bent copper demonstration sink pays homage to times when quality plumbing was treated with greater reverence. The resulting store design is bold, pragmatic and poetic.
Aesop Ginza occupies a location that was home to Japanese cobblers Milano Shoes for forty-seven years. That company was committed to offering personal service and quality wares to a loyal clientele, never wavering as the street changed around them. We look forward to working from a space that has embodied values so closely aligned with our own.
We invite you to visit Aesop Ginza at your earliest opportunity. Our highly trained staff will be available to guide you through our range of exceptional skin, hair and body products.
