Set in Shibuya, a busy shopping and fashion district, the Freitag Store Tokyo capitalizes on a unique opportunity to connect two streets and provide shopfronts on both sides.

A shipping container is positioned as a landmark at one entrance, referring to the Freitag products' journey from their home in Switzerland to the retail premises in Japan and referencing the brand's philosophy and its flagship Zürich store. The layout draws inspiration from the idea of a 'Freitag Street.' Inside the store, strategically placed Tokyo streetlights mark the street and guide visitors throughout the shop. The store features five sale points, each offering varied services and products, from a repair center and bicycle rental to an exclusive space for the Freitag reference series. 

Using raw materials and specific objects produces a unique shopping experience, Spillmann Echle's hallmark for Freitag retail spaces.
