Wallpaper City Guide OSAKA

雑誌Wallpaper*がファイドンから発行しているWallpaper* City Guideの大阪版がもうすぐ発売!私もリサーチャーとして参加しました。
「大阪」のイメージといえば食べ物とか、吉本のお笑い、日本で2番目の都市とかですが、建築やデザイン、ショッピングという点でも、意外と見所はたくさんあります。そういうところがカバーされているガイドブック、特に英語のものは今までなかったので「京都に行くついでに大阪に寄ったけど、何を見ていいか分からなかった」という人は多いはず。「観光名所に行くだけじゃなくて、クールな大阪が見たい!」という人はぜひぜひ。

Wallpaper* City Guide Osaka has come out! I worked as a researcher and I have been looking forward to seeing this book.
Osaka is underestimated. The city has a reputation for food and business, and it's Japan's second city, however, there is a lot more to this place - including great architecture, well-designed products and interiors and excellent shops.
A lot of people go to Osaka on the way to Kyoto and have trouble finding anything amazing - until now there hasn't been a guide book about the real Osaka.
For those who want to check out cool Osaka as well as sight seeing sites, this guide book is the one to get!

Hello, I'm on holiday in Osaka and knew that the Guide was coming out. Do you know where I can buy a copy in Osaka??

Junkudo in front of Osaka station may have stock but maybe not yet...
There are two Junkudo by Osaka/Umeda station - Dojima Avanza and Hilton Plaze East.
I hope you can find it...
