Last month Kamigu, an online store selling creative paper products, opened its virtual doors for business. Paper vases, dioramas, wall hooks, coasters, figurines and packaging all created by Japanese designers are on sale. Providing a platform for designers to get their work out there in the world, Kamigu is making high design affordable and accessible.
We were particularly enchanted with the Architecture Model Series, designed by architect Naoki Terada, which are 1/100th scale dioramas of typically Japanese scenes like cherry blossom picnics, construction sites or Tokyo streets.
