Inspiring our design team today is this specialty painting store in Tokyo.

Instead of minimalist wallpaper or busy installations, Pigment has meticulously lined the walls with 4,200 different… pigments! As well as 200 antique paintbrushes and ink sticks, and 50 kinds of animal glue. The effect is simply stunning, combining the traditional and modern worlds.

The surrounding interior, which is inspired by the patterns of traditional bamboo blinds, beautifully matches the Japanese store which runs workshops on traditional painting methods.

Let’s hope no one knocks one of one of these pigment bottles over :/
