The concept behind Ginza Tsutaya Books, “The World’s Best Art Bookstore,” is to connect art with Japanese culture and everyday life through encouraging the act of “living with art.” The space is home to a book selection that expresses the limitless charm and mystique of art and that is like that of no other bookstore. It stocks standard books, big books and valuable vintage texts along with a beautifully crafted stationary selection. The store is comprised of a variety of spaces including an art gallery, event space and lifestyle laboratory.
