Makoto Yamaguchi design: I find everything

'i find everything' by japanese atelier makoto yamaguchi design is a single

apartment unit that has been renovated into a gallery and shop in tokyo.

measuring only 20 m2, the design revolves around a simple circulation

with careful consideration paid to materiality in order to extend the limiting space. exclusive in nature, the shop is indiscernible from the outside: ivy plants

crawl up the facade with only a small sign indicating the tight entry stairway.

taking advantage of this approach, the redesign aims to amplify the open atmosphere

of the space in contrast by removing the drop ceiling and freeing 1.2 m in height.

the surfaces of a centrally placed display counter are outfitted with a seamless mirror,

further stretching the interior while establishing an inconspicuous route.
