This fascinating and beautifully executed forest of pvc pipes designed by Supposed Design Office is oddly enough part of the Diesel Denim Gallery in Aoyama, Japan. The store is an interesting one in that it also functions as an art gallery for emerging artists, showcasing new talent through installation and exhibits.

This particular installation has transformed the space into a sort of art exhibit for the Diesel clothing line, fusing both art and fashion in one space. The installation is titled Nature Factory and consists of a series of plumbing pipes that run along the walls in different directions yet in a somewhat orderly fashion before breaking character and branching out into natural, tree-like forms.

According to the designer Makato Tanijiri, principal of Supposed, via Arch Daily, “Denim as recognized work clothes formerly had, at times, shown different expressions as fashion items to the people. Equally, a group of plumbing, usually unnoticed, shows completely different expressions in the installation.”
