≪Kyoto MaGiC news≫ No.4 "Nakahara Junichi×SOU・SOU 2" - えむえむブログ

So this is the second news of Nakahara Junichi×SOU・SOU.
We had a meeting at SOU・SOU shop in kyoto（http://www.sousou.co.jp/）.

Has anyone been to the shop in Kyoto?
The narrow street that connects to Shinkyogoku street leads you to 6 SOU・SOU shops. One with Japanese towels and bags, one with socks, and Japanese style clothing....

We went around the shops taken by SOU・SOU designer Wakabayashi san.

This shop is specialized at Japanese towels and bags. This shop is a great shop for gift shopping.

Japanese style fashion for men. Very popular among the foreign tourists.

Many different patterns for Tabi shoes.

These fabrics can be used for order made. Nakahara Rikako san from Nakahara Junichi's office Himawariya, was very into them too.

These items are for the cyclists. Designed nicely and it has high functionality.

We moved to cafe on the second floor of the building after we went around.

The tea is getting served.

SOU・SOU even makes Japanese sweets every month depending on the textile design for the month. The meeting started with tea and sweets.

And these are the illustrations we chose.

So these 5 pieces will be developed to Japanese clothing(yukata) and 5 more will be designed by SOU・SOU as their original line. So 10 designs in total will be produced.

I cannot wait to see them!
