Daikanyama T-SITE

The building and environmental design of Daikanyama T-SITE involve the work of many creators. One of its attractions is the many design features that make you want to just relax and take it easy. The building, which covers everything from architecture to interior design, features an impressive facade with the motif of the letter "T," created by Klein Dytham Architecture. Additionally, the graphic design of Kenya Hara, who was in charge of the art direction within the facility, gives the entire facility a sense of unity. Moreover, there are many large stones on the grounds of Daikanyama T-SITE that are said to have been located in the garden of the Mito Tokugawa Residence, and you can listen to the story behind them. It's also recommended to take a stroll with friends, children, or even your dog in the expansive garden, which has a lush landscape design. You can experience not only shopping, but also a comfortable atmosphere and beautiful space.

Tsutaya Books, located along Yamate-dori in Daikanyama's T-SITE, is an attractive space that spans from Building 1 to Building 3. In addition to books, there are galleries showcasing the works of creators, a stationery corner, carefully selected home appliances and lifestyle goods, and a lounge surrounded by valuable art books and vintage magazines, all of which offer items that allow you to enjoy culture and life more deeply. You may encounter rare books that are not often seen in regular bookstores, such as Japanese books, Western books, and vintage books carefully selected from a variety of genres. The selection of high-quality stationery, such as pens and ink from around the world, is also abundant, making it perfect for gifts like birthdays.

At Daikanyama T-SITE, a variety of cultural events are held throughout the year. There are various programs such as cooking, design, fashion brand pop-up events, and talk events, but the flea markets and antique markets are particularly popular among antique lovers. Retro furniture, goods, accessories, and more are displayed in a cramped space, making it enjoyable just to look around. New items are added during the event period, so you'll always find something new no matter how many times you visit. This event is a must-see for antique lovers and those who enjoy a retro atmosphere.
