Concept: "Made with Love"
The first SLOWHOUSE store, "SLOWHOUSE Umeda," opened on the second floor of NU Chayamachi Plus in Osaka in 2011, based on the concept of "mindful living"—choosing items that feel good and cherishing them for a long time.
This is the first SLOWHOUSE to open in the Kanto region, offering a diverse selection of items related to daily life, including furniture,雑貨 (miscellaneous goods), apparel, plants, art, food, and body care products.
It features ACTUS's concept brand "SLOWHOUSE," which pursues an ethical and sustainable lifestyle, as well as the general lifestyle brand created with the aesthetic sensibility of Nathan Williams, creative director of the quarterly magazine "KINFOLK" from Portland, USA."Ouur by KINFOLK"among other items.
Under the concept of "natural, beautiful living," "Ouur by KINFOLK" proposes a comfortable, functional, and simple lifestyle through high-quality garments and table accessories. The spatial design and furniture for "Ouur by KINFOLK" were directed by Nathan Williams himself, making it a highlight.
Furthermore, it includes "SOHOLM," a restaurant produced by ACTUS, offering fresh ingredients such as rare venison and wild boar, along with several types of premium caviar, at reasonable prices.
