MUJI Breathes New Life into Historic Japanese House

In the realm of household goods and fashion, MUJI, the Japanese design brand, has etched a special place with its understated and naturalistic offerings. In recent times, it has spread its wings into the domains of architecture and interior design. As part of this initiative, it recently introduced its latest addition to the lineup of rental homes spread across Japan, revealing a peaceful abode in Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture, not too far from Tokyo. This home, a building with a history dating back a hundred years, has received a MUJI-style makeover and has now opened its doors for bookings on Airbnb as the MUJI Base Kamogawa.

This quaint Airbnb, standing tall for over a century, is a testament to the seamless fusion of the old and the new.

With its modern upgrades subtly intertwined with the original charm, the home is the embodiment of a harmonious fusion of the past and present.
