Nibankan Cork-back Coaster

Cork-back coaster celebrating the bold, colorful energy of Tokyo’s legendary Nibankan building. Designed by Minoru Takeyama in 1970, this Shinjuku landmark defined the era of "Supergraphics" with its massive, hand-painted geometric facade created by artist Kiyoshi Awazu. Famous for gracing the cover of Charles Jencks' The Language of Post-Modern Architecture, the building's original design was a masterpiece of 1970s pop-art aesthetics. This item capture that lost vibrancy, featuring the iconic concentric circles and stripes that once illuminated the Tokyo skyline, making them the perfect gift for graphic designers, architects, and lovers of Japanese retro culture.
