Tokyo Style, published by Apartamento, invites readers into the homes of Tokyo. This updated reprint of Kyoichi Tsuzuki’s beloved Tokyo Style book, first published over 30 years ago, captures the timeless charm of Japanese living spaces. While much has changed over the decades, the allure of these Tokyo homes remains as captivating as ever. Open the doors and prepare to fall in love!
More than three decades after its original publication, this new edition of Tokyo Style revives a cult classic and token collector’s item. Kyoichi Tsuzuki’s timeless photographs offer an intimate look at Tokyo homes as they are truly inhabited, presented here with a refreshed design that preserves the original book’s generous format. A selection of the book’s iconic images culminates in a new afterword by Kyoichi that unravels the nostalgia sparked by his work, which captures an analogue world of rich self-expression. A foreword by writer Barry Yourgrau, a longtime friend of Kyoichi, meditates on the ‘untidy and prodigiously cluttered’ hideouts of Tokyo, filled with everything ‘from the raunchy to the freaky and funky to the kawaii (“cute” in Japanese)’.
