Swings serve as shelves in this Tokyo shop by Japanese designer Hiroaki Matsuyama of Minorpoet.
Minorpoet were commissioned to show off the new collection of planters and accessories by stainless-steel company Steor.
Enormous rolls of material serve as seats either side of a small table in the middle of the concrete floor.
Photographs are by Satoshi Shigeta/Nacasa & Partners.

On this collection, they produced various products for houseplants and flowers.
We proposed the swings hanging from the ceiling as shelves.
By this swings, a wide variety products and green are organised into a one space.
This familiar form for all the ages goes well together with simple and playful products.
