Camper Together

The first Camper Together project with Kengo Kuma was created at the Via Montenapoleone store in Milan in 2014. The store was constructed according to the sensitivities of a shoe and multiplied to become a more complex construction, lending a new dimension to the space. In 2018, the designer returned with a new concept for the Paseo de Gracia store in Barcelona, using traditional ceramic tiles to draw attention to individual products and connect two distinct cultures – Spain and Japan.
