TOKYO-GA, an international project to capture “TOKYO NOW”
through the visionary eyes of 100 photographers, launched in Tokyo in 2011.

Tokyo is home to a countless number of attractive goods. Some are rooted in Japanese traditions and culture, others were invented along the way to make living more convenient. There are so many different goods; stylish, useful, fashionable, cute, never-before-seen. Come to Tokyo and get to know the tools as if you are a local!
