Syntax Colour Mugs

Ceramic mugs celebrating the aggressive mechanical beauty of Shin Takamatsu’s lost masterpiece, Syntax. Completed in Kyoto in 1990, this building was a defining icon of japan's futuristic bubble-era postmodern architecture, famous for its cantilevered steel wings and engine-like facade that resembled a robotic machine from a cyberpunk future. Though demolished in 2009, its bold design remains a cult favorite among architects and sci-fi fans alike. This captures the raw power of its industrial silhouette, making them the perfect gift for lovers of brutalist aesthetics, 1980s Japanese design, and futuristic architecture. • Ceramic • Microwave safe.
