Stair

Oh man, I need to go to Stair, a new cafe/restaurant/bar in Aoyama designed by Wonderwall‘s Masamichi Katayama. More pics on this page. Here’s the description from the Wonderwall site:

The idea behind this bar lounge was the revival of the glitzy cabaret of a past era. Gaudiness, allure, a touch of the wicked and other elements were integrated to fashion this space. In the quest to tastefully incorporate “tattoos” to an environment built with traditional materials such as marble, rosewood, Katayama enlisted a custom painter to paint a design with a touch of mischievousness in mind directly on the surface once the space was completed.

According to the map, it looks like it’s located on the same street as the Bape Exclusive shop.
