Higashiya

Simplicity for Shinichiro Ogata

• Introduction

  I am the book Higashiya. My pages are filled with literal eye candy. 

   

• Curator's Notes 

   

  Simplicity designer Shinichiro Ogata opened Higashiya, a chain of tea and dessert shops, to bring back the fading neighborhood wagashi confectionary stores. This book offers a glimpse into the evolution of Higashiya as it strives to adapt the culture and tradition of wagashi for our modern times. Printed in both Japanese and English, this book features beautiful photographs depicting the sweets, how they are plated and how they reflect the changes of the seasons and variations in nature.
