Modern(?) Design Building Entrance in Tokyo

in Japan

As I was walking towards Ebisu from Shibuya together with two friends, we came across this weird looking building entrance somewhere in Daikan-yama. Either something got lost in translation, or perhaps that beam sticking out of the entrance adds to the appeal? That thing is not your friend at night after a few beers if you’re a tall western guy!

That white square in the glass is also a mystery…

Man… it looks like the guy that was hired to build the place screwed something up. Why would an iron beam be left there?

Why would it be put there in the first place? Doesn’t make sense :P But it’s interesting, and interesting is good^^

I’ve been there. It used to be a Stussy clothing store, now it’s an occasional music venue. A friend of mine played live music there, and they served alcohol and an organic dinner.
