109, Fashion department store in Shibuya, Japan
The cylindrical 109 building features ten floors connected by a continuous spiral path that guides visitors through multiple fashion boutiques and retail spaces.
Architect Minoru Takeyama designed this retail structure in 1979 as a direct competitor to the Seibu department stores in the central Shibuya district.
The name 109 stems from Japanese wordplay where the numbers 10 and 9 form 'to-kyu', referencing the parent company Tokyu Group.
Located near Shibuya Station, the department store contains over 120 shops across its floors, with the basement level dedicated to footwear collections.
The fourth floor concentrates on street fashion, while the seventh floor houses Ma Maison cafe and Moreru Mignon photo studio for entertainment purposes.
