It's been a strenuous time for us this last month, we have been designing a new look for our shop in Tokyo, and my Mister went over there for a couple of weeks to get it all done. Previously our shop was very feminine and was in dire need of a makeover, it hadn't changed in the last 3 years! It all seemed to come together really well me thinks. Nao had the exterior of the shop cladded in wood.
He took over lots of things from the UK such as these light fittings and prints, and painted the furniture, and introduce more plain wood to give a more warm and natural look.
We asked the girls in the shop to make little wooden price blocks instead of the black plastic ones we used to have.
I love plywood and I think it worked really well to make all these victorian cabinets and bit more modern.
Upstairs, Nao changed the Men's shop to make it brighter and with a bit of an Isle of Wight theme.
shells from our local beach.
and we are now also stocking Seaforth Chocolate Co.
If you are ever in Tokyo, I hope you can stop by for a little visit ; )

Wow, beautiful make-over, well done!! Many congratulations and I hope your business is going really well for you.
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! We have a trip planned to Japan (Tokyo/Kyoto) in our near future and this will be on top of my Shibuya shopping list :)
ReplyDeleteLooks brilliant! I love that you've carried your style all the way over to Tokyo!
ReplyDeleteFantastic. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI live in the UK, and I have very little interest in visiting Japan... but now I think it might be worth the trip just to visit this little haven
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming shop with such interesting displays. Love it.
ReplyDeleteWell done, it looks so sophisticated.

Amazing!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous. I'm not a jewelry person but I could see myself spending a long time in a store like this. Your styling is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteNow THAT made my day!! How gorgeous! Is there any chance you'd like to open Rust Ireland (in rural Co. Monaghan, where I live...) Wishing you every success with your new look shop!
ReplyDeleteLove your merchandising ideas...it all looks uber tasteful.
ReplyDeletewow!
ReplyDeleteI'm sending my son to your shop this summer! What a lot of hard work you put in.
ReplyDeleteArtemis, WOW. WOW!!! How incredibly gorgeous and understated and perfectly you and Nao. You should be so proud. What a beauty.
ReplyDeleteWell done!
ReplyDeleteHello Artemi, Can I use some of these photos to do a post on my blog about the new designed shops and your work? please let me know. Thanks

Well if you are ever short of something to do (never gonna happen I know!) then you could start a new business doing shop fittings. You two would be the dream team...
ReplyDeleteAmazing work. I think I am planning a trip just to check out your beautiful shop.
ReplyDeleteOh Artemis, it is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think that your store looked really gorgeous before but wow, I truly adore how it looks now. I think it represents you both so well. Really very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteTruly adorable shop. Though I think it was so gorgeous before...it represents you both so well now and it's truly very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteStunning, I'd love to visit
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful, such a unique space!
ReplyDeleteI really love the wallpaper that looks like an old fashion engraved image! I'm really interested to know where it came from. Is that something that you have had digitally produced as a bespoke item or is it available to buy online... it's very chic. You both have exquisite taste!
