There are several small design shops — Danish modern, mid-century — on this stretch of Johnson Street in the Fitzroy neighborhood and this one falls into the wabi-sabi category. The ‘70s-era Japanese aesthetic is organic, rustic, minimal, and perfectly imperfect. Here, you can find hand-molded soaps, wooden cutting boards, one-of-a-kind clay tea cups, small wooden furnishings, and hard-to-find books on ikebana, the art of minimalist Japanese flower arranging.
