We created the pop-up shop Tile Kiosk for the promotion of the new brand Tajimi Custom Tiles and hosted it at the popular shopping and gallery complex SPIRAL near the Omotesando crossing in Tokyo,. Tile Kiosk made available a large selection of tiles, both dead-stock and production pieces, as well as ceramic objects made by local Tajimi craftsmen, and all could be purchased individually at Tile Kiosk. The presentation was inspired by sample displays at tile factories in Tajimi and designed to show the beauty and huge variety of colours, textures, shapes and sizes of artisanal Tajimi tiles. Tile Kiosk was realised in collaboration with Nao Takegata / Dailypress.
Tajimi City is the centre of the Japanese tile industry, with a centuries-old tradition of craftsmanship and excellence. Tajimi Custom Tiles creates custom-tailored tiles in any size, shape, colour or texture, using a range of unique production, glazing and firing methods. Tajimi Custom Tiles caters to architects and designers globally. The brand was launched in 2019 by X’S Corporation under the creative direction of David Glaettli/ GDD.
