DIOR Bamboo Pavilion

Recently opened in Tokyo's Daikanyama district, the Dior Bamboo Pavilion is the French house's most ambitious concept store in Asia yet, spanning 1,800 square meters across a striking golden bamboo facade that glows like a lantern after dark. The first major retail concept to showcase the collections of new creative director Jonathan Anderson, the pavilion blends Versailles-style parquet flooring and Parisian mouldings with washi paper walls, a Zen garden, and a koi pond, in a deep collaboration with around 20 Japanese artists and designers. The experience culminates at Café Dior, where three-Michelin-starred chef Anne-Sophie Pic presents an exclusive menu bridging French cuisine with Japanese flavors.
