Tokyo’s skyline is ever-evolving, marked by the rise of upscale developments that seamlessly blend luxury living with cutting-edge shopping experiences. Among these architectural marvels stands Azabudai Hills, the latest venture by Mori Building, a powerhouse in Japan’s property development scene renowned for landmarks like Omotesando Hills and Roppongi Hills. Set against the backdrop of a meticulously planned urban redevelopment spanning over three decades, Azabudai Hills emerges as a modern urban village, offering a vibrant mix of commercial, residential, and cultural amenities.
Much like its predecessor, Roppongi Hills, Azabudai Hills encompasses a diverse array of offerings, including offices, a hotel, residences, boutiques, restaurants, and cultural spaces, all interconnected by lush green public areas. At the heart of this bustling hub lies Garden Plaza, where discerning shoppers can indulge in the finest offerings from fashion’s elite, including the esteemed house of CELINE.
CELINE, the Parisian fashion maison synonymous with understated elegance, has carved out a prominent space within Azabudai Hills, occupying a sprawling 230 sqm. (2,476 sq.ft.) unit spread across two floors. Spearheaded by creative director Hedi Slimane, the interior design of the boutique exudes sophistication, seamlessly blending Brutalist influences with opulent materials and carefully curated artworks.
Descending to the lower ground floor, visitors are greeted by a curated selection of women’s bags, small leather goods, jewelry, accessories, and pieces from the CELINE Maison collection. A tiered display adorned in black and white marble serves as the focal point, juxtaposed with a cozy seating area where guests can immerse themselves in the world of CELINE’s haute parfumerie collection.
Ascending the polished brass staircase to the upper level, shoppers are treated to a showcase of women’s ready-to-wear and shoe collections in a space adorned with specially designed furnishings by Slimane. Vintage pieces interspersed throughout the lounge area enhance the ambiance, elevating the shopping experience to new heights.
With operating hours from 11 am to 8 pm daily, the CELINE boutique at Azabudai Hills beckons fashion enthusiasts to immerse themselves in a world of timeless elegance and unparalleled craftsmanship. Located at 5-9-1 Toranomon, Garden Plaza, Tokyo 105-0001, inquiries can be made at +81 3 64501808.
