In the entrance of Takashimaya, the big department store in Nihonbashi, a huge cherry blossom ikebana composition from Hiroki Ohara (小原宏貴), fifth generation head of the Ohara school of ikebana. And you only thought ikebana comes in sizes you can fit on a table! (For those interested, the artist has posted on Instagram a video about how he set it up.)
