See other Aesop Stores on Yellowtrace.
The Kawaramachi store by Torafu Architects is Aesop’s second Kyoto store. The store’s design both reflects the history of this neighbourhood, which reaches back to the late 16th century when Kyoto was subject to an extensive reconstruction and the 19th century when it was central to the Meiji Restoration, and aligns itself with contemporary Kyoto.
