Doors of Shimokitazawa’s Shops before they Open!
Are you an early bird who wants to get outside ASAP when you wake up? Or maybe the jet-lag is coming into affect while visiting Tokyo. If so, go take a stroll around Shimokitazawa’s many small side roads. The shop doors are covered with great street art (some commissioned, some not), and worth seeing before they go into hiding while the store is open.
Door for ABC-Mart (a popular shoe store in Japan).
The above title photo and this photo above were both created by MOT8 (both in 2014), a street artist living in Tokyo. He does work on both canvas and public street walls. Check on more HERE.
Created for the fashion and accessory shop, hicarimono.
Work by Kou Matsumoto in 2004.
Created specifically for the shop, Rhythm9.
