Konnichiwa Chronicles: Window Shopping

Walking along Ginza is always a creatively refreshing experience. It houses some of the most prestigious brands from Japan, Europe and the U.S. and each of these brands are in visually spectacular buildings. From turn-of-the-century style architecture (Takasaki) to sleek and modern structure (Apple store), Ginza's got it all.

Despite the glum and rainy day yesterday, our walk along the street was brightened up by these two stores.


Lanvin's quirky, comic yet still tres chic window dressing.


Swarovski's irregular metal strip facade that looked like platinum icicles falling to the ground.

I wish we can come up with innovative and visually stunning shop fronts in Manila. Hopefully, Greenblet 5 can pioneer that, too.
