Rainbow Bridge

Farewell My Tokyo are a series of framed artistic images created by designer Megumi Takami, who wanted to memorialize the essence of Tokyo for anyone who wants to keep a reminder of its colorful street signs, cozy neighborhoods, town landscapes, modern architectures and cultural landmarks.

Each image is made from a unique Japanese paper known as pachika, developed by paper company Takeo. The characteristics of the paper are such that when heated, the surface turns transparent. Takami works with a small group of skilled craftsmen who utilize a heat press to create each embossed image by hand. Pigment is then applied to emphasize certain areas of each print.

NOTE: With the purchase of this print, you can also order Tokyo Stickers. 

Rainbow Bridge

Completed in 1993, Rainbow Bridge is a beautiful suspension bridge in the northern part of Tokyo Bay, connecting Odaiba to central Tokyo. For many, it's become a symbol of new beginnings as it's one of the fist major landmarks while making your way to or from Narita Airport.
