Japan always recognized the quality in American products long before we knew and celebrated it. Little did we know during the 80’s and 90’s that our old pair of Jordans, vintage denim, or classic Eames shell chairs, were sought after and collected six thousand miles away. One of the more coveted brands is Herman Miller and for years it was difficult for the Japanese market to acquire Herman Miller products. That was until now, Herman Miller opened a showroom in December in the Marunouchi district of Tokyo, designed by Torafu Architects. The showroom features furniture from their office and home collection but also includes products that aren’t available in the U.S. including the exclusive House Industries blocks. See more photos of the space on Herman Miller’s blog, Torafu Architects, and Men’s Non No.
