TOKYO SALON
TOKYO SALON
Tokyo is changing its appearance at an ever-increasing pace, while small tucked-away
restaurants and backstreet eateries are disappearing from the downtown landscape.
Such places, once called salons, promoted art,literature and even economy that are unique to the city, just as European aristocrats used to offer open houses, night after night, for debates toward cultural flourishment.
The city of Tokyo claims to be a leading center of culture, but in the redevelopment process, it is constantly losing such activity bases that did once exist.
Thus TOKYO SALON was created in a street corner of a historic district, where hosts can freely invite people and create a new culture.
