Today we present the result of a beautiful collaboration between denim brand Denham and Scottish furniture makers Method. Inspired the history of traveling, Method constructed a beautiful steamer trunk for the jeanmaker. Both light weight and extremely robust, the birch lined trunk is outfitted with everything a jeanmaker could need. Handcut leather handles and the 200 interconnected traditional joints are only a few of the outstanding details that can be found on the trunk.

Take a further look at the trunk after the jump.

LAQ has teamed up with French fashion designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac on their latest furniture creation. The table ‘Mingskatable’ is “born from the clash between the history of the Chinese Ming furniture, the ancien Art of lacquering and the urban culture, the table Mingskatable evokes at the same time, the Golden Age of the Chinese furniture with its sandal red base and the “street culture”.”

Made from 7 layers of maple wood, the table comes in an edition of only 8 pieces.

In time for Christmas, Vitra presents three special edition versions of their iconic ‘Hang It All’ coat rack. The original rack by Charles and Ray Eames with colorful balls will be supplemented in Christmas 2011 by three new versions – available through February 2012. Next to a red version, they also presents a black/brown and black/black version.

In an interesting collaboration, G-Star RAW has teamed up with Vitra on a chair collaboration. They chose to work on models of the late French designer Jean Prouvé. The outcome is the Jean Prouvé Prouvé RAW Special Edition Chair, which comes in two colorways and it will be launched at the hhstyle.com x SIGN x G-STAR RAW ‘JEAN PROUVE EXHIBITION’. (Via Openers)

Like most G-Star projects, the Dutch denim brand also chose this time to go with a matte grey coloring of the product, giving it a military feel.

Once again the Asia-Pacific branch of Herman Miller has been working on an interesting new project. They recently got together with typographers House Industries on a small collaborative collection of tables.

“House Industries and Herman Miller Japan announce a conceptually elegant collaboration that combines the classic Eames wire-base table with timeless typographic forms drawn from the House Industries Eames Century Modern font collection. Each tabletop is hand-printed in House’s Grand Rapids, Michigan factory, returned to Herman Miller for assembly then packaged in a special House Industries-designed wooden crate.

House Industries and Herman Miller are producing a limited edition series of 80 tables that include A thru Z, numbers and ornaments from House Industries Eames Century Modern font collection. Forty tables will be available at the Herman Miller Reach event on September 16, 2011 and 40 will be available at the House Industries exhibition at the Herman Miller Tokyo Showroom on October 27, 2011.”

A nice preview video of the exhibition is featured here below.

While we have already presented guides for Shibuya and Harajuku, there is a lot happening in between the two areas, which we explore in the next chapter of our Tokyo shopping guide.

You can easily walk from Shibuya to Harajuku, as the two are connected and only one train stop away from each other. Some places are easier to find than others, but there are so many great shopping areas in the city to explore and we would not want to miss a single one of them.

Check out our store checks that we did on the edges of the two shopping districts, featuring some retailers that you have already heard about many times here on Highsnobiety.
