Previous spread: The multilevel Reality Lab in Tokyo, seen from its stairwell, is principal Tokujin Yoshioka’s 17th<br />
collaboration with clothier Issey Miyake. His studio, which was established in 2000, has also designed retail spaces<br />
for Swarovski and Camper. This Image: There are two street entrances to the store. Alongside one of them, a blue<br />
aluminum shelf displays several of the pleated light fixtures that Issey Miyake designed for the Italian manufacturer<br />
Artemide. Opposite: The other entrance is a bright spot in the streetscape of Tokyo’s Aoyama shopping district.<br />
Miyake’s Homme Plissé menswear line, which combines heavy fabrics with the designer’s signature pleats, inspired<br />
Yoshioka to create textural contrasts between construction materials.
