The new [Tokyo Coach](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ader-error-tokyo-space) store is set to showcase an artistic store front. Intricate geometric patterns line the windows, displaying what customers would take from the outside to be an [intricate exhibit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/proenza-schouler1).

The inside of this Coach store reveals a different side to the zig zag shapes. The storefront is actually comprised of a series of shelving units. These units will be used to hold individual Coach items, featuring only one accessory such as a handbag, a pair of sunglasses or a belt.

Standing behind this shop is design firm [OMA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crafted-world-exhibition-1). OMA draws inspiration from Coach stores of the 1940s here, bringing a bit of the brand's established history into the present day via this two story-tall structure.
