Maison Kitsuné is a French-Japanese lifestyle brand that was founded in 2002 as both a record label and a fashion house. Apparently, the founders -- Gildas Loaëc and Masaya Kuroki -- started out by DJ'ing in order to promote their brand and clothes.

In 2005, they released a full ready-to-wear collection and, according to Wikipedia, fashion has come to represent about 90% of the company's revenue (2020 figure).

In 2013, Kitsuné opened their first coffee shop in Tokyo. And since then, they have expanded around the world, opening cafes in Paris, Vancouver, Shanghai, and many other cities. As of today, I think they have 35 around the world.

Their latest venture is something a bit new though. It's called Desa Kitsuné, it's located in Canggu, Bali, and it's their first ever clothing shop/restaurant/club. It also comes with a pool and the idea is that you can do lots of different things here: shop, lounge during the day, and/or party at night.

I always find it interesting when different ideas and approaches are combined. And that's what Kitsuné continues to do. They also plan to do more of it. According to Monocle, the company wants to reach 100 cafes/restaurants around the world in the next 5 years.

So keep an eye out for more foxes in your city.
