The Conran Shop Daikanyama | Shopping in Daikanyama, Tokyo

UK-born home furnishings and lifestyle company The Conran Shop has had a presence in Japan since 1994 with stores in Tokyo and Kobe. Now, the established homeware dealer is taking things in a new direction with the introduction of a stunning new concept shop in Daikanyama. 

This sleek, minimalist space is the shop’s first ‘locally edited’ store, featuring a carefully curated range of home and lifestyle items from across Asia. While there are many design items from throughout Japan, you’ll also find special pieces from other countries including South Korea, Thailand, Taiwan and China. Whether you’re looking for a gift or just some quality souvenirs to take home with you, you’ll find a lot of well-designed items here including Japanese ceramics, Korean utensil sets and even tea from the adjoining tea bar.
