Cafe Pause

Taken from: http://jeansnow.net/cafepause/

Cafe Pause is located in Tokyo's Ikebukuro district (on the east side of Ikebukuro station) and, among other things, is home to the PauseTalk series of monthly talk events, aiming to create a forum where Tokyo-based creatives can get together and discuss their own projects, as well as cultural currents of the city.

The cafe has its own site (in Japanese). The image above was created by Luis Mendo (GOOD Inc.) for the Cafe Pause Poster Series.
