Taking his cues from classic circus motifs, Hayon infused the Tokyo store, which opened in 2009, with a whimsical elegance that begins on the street, where a classic glossy tile facade is offset by playful graffiti-printed glazing and giant candy cane'like door pulls.Photo courtesy Camper The Shanghai-based firm’s first Camper collaboration is a corporate showroom, which opened in 2013, and the brand’s flagship in China.
