A Perfect Opportunity to Experience Azuma's Creations Up Close



'AMKK' is a collective led by globally acclaimed floral artist Makoto Azuma, which develops experimental creations using flowers and plants as its theme. 'AMKK' stands for Azuma Makoto, Kaju Kenkyujo (Flower and Tree Research Institute). Its activities are consistently focused on finding the most mystical forms inherent in flowers and plants, elevating them to an artistic level, and expressing them, thereby enhancing the value of plants.

This flower shop will feature a lineup of plants gathered from across different colors, seasons, and countries. Within the space, which retains the ambiance of an indoor swimming pool, captivating flowers will add color, delighting the eyes and minds of visitors. While Azuma has his haute couture flower shop 'Jardin des Fleurs' in the same Minami-Aoyama area of Tokyo, this limited-time shop allows for the purchase of flowers without a reservation, making his creations more accessible.
