côte&ciel x Ben Richards

Under a blue spell... Ben Richards is a photographer and art director, who shot his Isar M Frost Blue and Hala S Sleek Black/Yellow for us under the azure skies of the incredible city of Tokyo. All the images are shot in at the 1964 Komazawa Olympic Park – the site of the postponed 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games. The iconic tower in the centre is designed by Yoshinobu Ashihara and is modelled around traditional Japanese wooden architecture, but subverted into a modernist/brutalist concrete structure.
