‘I had no choice but to buy my first large-format camera and, as I didn’t have a car, I strapped the equipment to the back of my scooter and travelled around Tokyo for over two years.

That was my starting point as a photographer, and it seems like a small miracle that, more than 30 years after its original publication, Apartamento is launching a new edition of *Tokyo Style*.

With these words from Kyoichi Tsuzuki, we present the reissue of an absolute cult classic, which over the decades has become a true collector’s item.

More than three decades after it first saw the light of day, Tokyo Style is revived to offer an intimate, sincere and unpretentious glimpse into Tokyo’s homes as they are actually lived in.

Far from the stereotypical neatness of magazine minimalism, Tsuzuki’s timeless snapshots capture an analogue world of prodigious disorder and profound self-expression.

This carefully curated large-format edition includes a new afterword by the photographer himself, reflecting on the nostalgia for that analogue Japan, as well as a foreword by the writer Barry Yourgrau, who reflects on these unique urban havens brimming with life, objects and pop culture.

An invitation to discover everyday life in one of the world’s great metropolises through an honest and intimate lens: to sit back and enjoy a way of life that, after all, isn’t half bad.
