Face House designed by Kazumasa Yamashita. (1974) Located in Kyoto, the building is an example of kanban architecture, where the façade takes on a bold, sign-like character — in this case, featuring face-like elements that resemble eyes and a nose. Originally designed for a graphic designer (who still resides on the upper floors), the ground level has recently been repurposed into a gallery and shop space. What are your thoughts? 💭

It’s a reflection of the people who make it.” What are your thoughts? 💭

Yohji Yamamoto and Adidas: a relationship between The Future of Fashion and the Legacy of Sport (2002-2024) Y-3 is where high fashion meets sportswear, a groundbreaking fusion of Yohji Yamamoto’s avant-garde aesthetic and Adidas’ performance innovation. Launched in 2002, it was ahead of its time—long before luxury-streetwear collaborations became the norm. Yamamoto, known for his deconstructed tailoring and monochrome minimalism, saw in Adidas the perfect canvas for his vision. But his relationship with the brand began well before Y-3. In the late ’90s, he collaborated with Adidas on a limited series of footwear, experimenting with the intersection of sports and high fashion. This early partnership laid the foundation for what would become Y-3, setting the stage for a sleek, futuristic line that redefined sneaker culture and technical apparel. From the iconic, tech-infused garments, Y-3 and Yohji Yamamoto have been shaping the game for over two decades. What are your thoughts? 💭 Scans By: @myclothingarchive
