MUJI introduces new airbnb stay in Kamogawa City, Japan

 

Renowned for its natural and minimalist products in household goods, apparel, and more, design brand MUJI has also ventured into the worlds of architecture and interior design. Joining its lineup of rental homes in Japan, including Plain House (see designboom’s latest coverage, here), the brand introduces a serene dwelling in Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture, near Tokyo. The century-old house has undergone a makeover, showcasing MUJI’s distinctive minimalist touch, and is now open for bookings as MUJI Base Kamogawa on Airbnb.

Your very own Muji Base

 

The 100-year-old house is designed to embrace a contemporary, free lifestyle with a touch of Western influence, while cherishing the essence of the Japanese ‘Satoyama’ living—being one with nature. The Airbnb stay (available here) combines modern updates with its authentic charm, harmonizing with the natural surroundings. The entire interior space exudes MUJI’s clean aesthetic, complemented by a carefully curated selection of their products.

 

MUJI enthusiasts are invited to savor a tranquil retreat, indulging in relaxing days or making it their ideal ‘base’ for remote work. ‘Nowadays, lifestyles and workstyles have changed drastically. Though can choose to live and work anywhere you want, having a place where you want to go back again and again always gives you peace of mind,’ shares the Japanese design brand. ‘If you had those places everywhere in Japan, you would fill your heart with happiness. MUJI BASE can be the one for you.’ The house presents itself as such a sanctuary—where you can truly feel at home and immerse yourself in the local community’s distinctive lifestyle. As the brand notes, during their stay, visitors can expect to cultivate a profound sense of appreciation for the finer aspects of life and gain invaluable wisdom from the experiences.
