SynopsisNowhere in the world does the interior design of a shop influence the sales as it does in Japan. Retailers spare no trouble or expense when planning and realising the design or renovation of their premises. If a few months pass and the interior fails to produce the desired commercial success, the refurbishment game starts all over again. PowerShop presents the best and most recent retail designs by ten Japanese interior architects, each of whom agreed to a personal interview. Shops and showrooms created for established names like Issey Miyake, Yohji Yamamoto and Nissan share center stage with numerous smaller, cutting-edge boutiques. In-depth reviews of more than 30 projects are complemented by full-shot and close-up photographs, as well as various drawings, including renderings. The book also features a complete reference section, countless statistics and a number of anecdotes about shopping in Japan.
