Cramped living
A neat solution; these car storage units go up and down - allowing for multiple cars to be stored in a tight space.
Renzo Piano
A building of glass, and very swanky.
ito + eisenman
the new Toyo Ito building opened on the 10th of December
Eisenman in Tokyo. Koizumi Lighting Headquarters. The unit had mixed reviews. Overall - the vote would be been more on Eisenman's side if the building would have been grayscale... I think the pink frightened them.

tod's by ito
on omotesando. outstanding skin. But just a box. Too overwhelmed by ennui to inspect interior which was univerally considered bit of a let-down. but still v v cool. much better than the mikimoto building.
