A Peek inside the studio of a Mr. Andrew Wellman
Nestled amongst paddy fields, down a crooked little ally sits an ordinary little house, but what goes on inside the little house is something a little bit different.
I enter to the smell of coffee and the offer of breakfast and after my second banana stuffed pancake I was led to what can only be described as 'a hub of creativity.' As I shuffle through the painting laden entrance way, the smell of resin hits my nostrils, it's scent overpowering and pleasing my senses simultaneously. I come out into a work space, surrounded by images and trinkets that flow together almost organically. Everything from magazine clippings to Bintang bottles call this space home. This my friends is the studio of the artist known as Andrew Wellman, and this is a look into where it all goes down.

On the edge of Harajuku, a bold new sign has risen - The Residence of Impermanence - in Harajuku, Tokyo, is back. Art, surfboards, motorcycles, apparel, café, music - a place where all kinds of enthusiasms collide. Step inside to the Deus Café - a breezy open ceiling space, serving all-day breakfast and the perfect energy for every moment. We're not ones to argue with that. Climb the spiral staircase to surfboards quietly lined against a softly lit backdrop.

Shaped exclusively for the Residence by Takuya “Tappy” Yoshikawa, Tetsuya Ogawa, and Jared Mell, each board is one of a kind. Sofas once beloved at the former Harajuku store — crafted by TRUCK Furniture and Stephen Kenn — have been reupholstered and brought to life for their next chapter. They’ll take on new character with time — just like this place. We invite you to settle in and enjoy the flow.

Same name. New form. The spirit remains, just slightly rearranged. Come in, stay awhile. Find us at 2-32-5 Jingumae, Shibuya-Ku, BPR Square Jingumae 1-1F & 2F Tokyo.

In Benzin Veritas!
