We’d like to introduce a small sneak peak of the tokyo sense brands, some of which we have long relationships with, some are new discoveries — now traveling to the Paris pop-up.

Looking back with a loving eye at exhibitions we realised with some of the artists currently on view in the COMPANIONS show at Stores 77 and 81:

„I was lucky to be introduced to Lewis Baltz by Thomas Zander, his gallerist in Cologne. Mr. Baltz had family ties to Berlin and spent time here every so often. He was thoughtful, incredibly well-connected, and generous with ideas and suggestions. We hosted a book signing with him in our store – I believe it was for his boxed set of complete works published by Steidl.
Baltz is best known for his black-and-white photographs of man-made landscapes in America. Though these landscapes might be easy to dismiss, I find beauty in their reduced, austere compositions. I was particularly excited to see Baltz’s first works in colour, the series Sites of Technology. He always dared to look beyond the obvious and the spectacular, exploring places of restricted access where people were shaping the future of technology. I also thought these works were a perfect fit for the unfinished, imperfect atmosphere of our space at Potsdamer Strasse 98.”

tokyo sense
14.06 – 07.07.2026
16 Rue des Minimes, 75003 Paris

A pop-up concept in Paris showcasing 32 contemporary Japanese brands spanning fashion, objects, jewellery, books, homeware, and design. Conceived as a hybrid between a multi-brand store, exhibition, and editorial platform, it brings together voices we deeply believe in – many of whom we have collaborated with for years. The project aims to introduce Japanese brands to a wider European audience while preserving the integrity and spirit that define their work.

Opening day on June 14, 11am – 7 pm.
We hope to see you there!

Something is happening.
For a long time now, we’ve been quietly working on a project that means a great deal to us, and we’re finally ready to share it with you.
Since July 2025, countless conversations, travels, ideas and moments have slowly turned into something real.
One of the greatest blessings in all of this has been the trust within our network. It started when our dear friend Hiroyuki Murase, founder of , introduced Andreas to Mr. Omote, the president of the Japanese company LUMINE – a collaboration we could never have imagined at the time.
LUMINE had been looking for a creative advisor to help introduce Japanese brands to a wider European audience. In the months that followed, we worked intensely together around a shared belief: that there are so many incredible Japanese makers, designers and independent brands whose work deserves to be seen, experienced and lived with beyond Japan – many of them still largely unknown in Europe.
tokyo sense was born from this idea.
A curated pop-up presenting around 30 Japanese brands across fashion, objects, jewellery, books, homeware and design – bringing together voices we deeply believe in, many of whom we have worked with for years.
For Andreas, whose relationship with Japanese fashion began with Yohji Yamamoto and Comme des Garçons in the 1980s and has continued through years of travelling across Japan since 2016, this project is deeply personal: a long-standing dream to bring these brands to a wider audience without compromising their integrity or spirit.
For LUMINE, tokyo sense represents a first step in building a cultural bridge between Japan and Europe – not through nostalgia or by placing craftsmanship behind glass, but by presenting contemporary Japanese creativity as something alive and relevant to everyday life today.
For us as a team, it marks our first pop-up outside of Germany – staffed by our Berlin team, built with people we deeply admire.

launches 14 June in Paris and runs until 7 July at 16 Rue des Minimes, 75003 Paris.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who helped make this possible. More details to follow over the coming weeks.

We are delighted to invite you to discover TO MY SHIPS, a new addition to our portfolio.

Entering the scene with a thoughtful and distinctive mission, TO MY SHIPS places the often-overlooked underarm at the centre of a new beauty ritual.

Redefining deodorant through fragrance, ritual, and everyday necessity, TO MY SHIPS creates elevated personal care formulated with skincare-grade actives and uncompromising standards of fragrance creation, using responsibly sourced natural and naturally derived ingredients.

The name TO MY SHIPS is drawn from Homer’s Iliad, reflecting the cultural universe from which the brand takes inspiration: a world where beauty and ritual exist amid chaos and conflict.

With its distinctive visual language, literary references, and uncompromising approach to fragrance creation, TO MY SHIPS invites a new way of experiencing scent, proximity, and daily ritual.

Launch event: June 6th, 2–6 PM

„One day, we came to work and found the front of our stores boarded up with wooden planks. Only a small entrance had been left open. We tried to paint over it. We stapled empty Sc*****er boxes onto the walls to say: we are still open!!! The building had become a construction site, and it was clear that we were no longer wanted there. No effort was made to support our daily operations, and every attempt we made to adapt was met with threats and demands. Even before that, the systematic pressure from the new landlord had already worn me out. In my mind, I was already somewhere else. That is another story, one we will tell another time.

Our Münzstrasse years were incredibly special. The whole neighbourhood felt special – filled with exciting, independent, owner-operated businesses, almost like a little village. But fairytales do not always end well: urban politics failed to protect that village, and the old landlords did not appreciate fiercely enough the gold they held within their buildings.
Still, I feel nothing but gratitude for those years and for the loyal customers we found along the way. I knew the move to Tiergarten would mean losing some people, but I also believed the new space would convince many of them – and many others besides. Being understood and supported by a strong network of customers, partners, and friends is something I will never take for granted.”

„I could always rely on Mr. Kunzen. He showed me every vacant space in the building and, at that point, I took every one he offered me. I saw it as both a challenge and an act of faith: opening new stores for new categories and somehow building a small world in Mitte. Around 2007, I took over a beautiful six-room apartment on the first floor above the Acne store. By then, AM1 had become a little crowded with objects and interior pieces – Lobmeyr, Serge Mouille lamps, and the like – and I had always dreamed of creating a space that suggested how to actually live with these things.
ETAGE became exactly that: a model apartment with an e15 bedroom dressed in Ege bedsheets and a living room centred around a huge laid table with tablecloths, Nymphenburg candle holders, and Pott cutlery. Each room had its own atmosphere – one with a silver floor, another with a beautiful black Golran carpet.
During those years, I made daily rounds through all the stores, and it filled me with joy. We managed to open one new concept next to another, not through long-term strategy, but through intuition, courage, and vision. ETAGE became the culmination of this small world because it imitated a private space and therefore went beyond being simply a retail environment.
That idea was never tied to a single space, and it still drives me today. Even after the Mitte years ended for me in 2010, when a new owner took over the building and changed everything – for me personally and professionally, but also for Mitte itself.”

Looking back with a loving eye at exhibitions we realized with some of the artists currently on view in the COMPANIONS show at Store 77 and 81:

I have long admired Mitch Epstein’s work from afar, so I was overjoyed when he and his wife, Susan, visited my store on Münzstrasse. He was in Berlin for a fellowship with the American Academy in 2008. I told him it would be my dream to host his work in my store – and that I would even empty it completely to make space. Together with his gallerist, Thomas Zander, we somehow developed this idea.
Sadly, I don’t have any pictures of that 2008 exhibition, but we did become friends and later collaborated on a second exhibition during Gallery Weekend 2017 at our space on Potsdamer Strasse 98. I admire his versatility and fearlessness in shifting his focus, as well as how his work transcends photography – it is deeply political.
