Sliding into video...

Whenever new toys arrive, whether they be motorized, seaworthy or techy, its always a pleasing few days tinkering with said arrivals. In this case, its the latter of the three that has had me enjoyably captivated for the last 36 hours. two new camera arrivals to the studio brought with them the chance to experiment in the moving picture side of things. So a day was spent shadowing the fabrication side of the Temple...and with a quick slice we pieced things together. This is a vignette from the afternoon.

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!
