At the GYRE complex on Omotesando-dori you'll find the MoMA Design Store, which offers something for everyone. As long as you like modern design, you are at the right place, and this is not just a store for buying, you can also treat it as museum. The store sells goods and products based on the art that can be found at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The closest station is Meiji-jingu-mae, but Harajuku station and Omotesando station are also close enough for you to walk there.

Very interesting! I've never seen such design stores before. It will be interesting to look in and see everything with your own eyes. I hope there will be more interesting spon elements. This will be useful to me in my work. Maybe one day my team and I will get into https://medium.com/theymakedesign/top-branding-agencies-bcf12154af9b.
