"Garage NAGOYA", a shop where you can find the greens that suit you with professionals

Craft classes recommended for DIY beginners

At the back of the 3rd floor, there is a "Craft Classroom" where you can experience a popular workshop at the Toyohashi Main Store. Mr. Futamura, who was originally good at DIY, started with the idea of "I want customers to come to the store more casually" and "I want them to enjoy plants and DIY more", and now it has become a popular event with a dedicated space. Various workshops are held to enjoy woodwork and plants, such as making shelves and making wreaths.

Since the capacity is about 10 people, the instructor will carefully teach you one by one. Also, since all the materials and tools are prepared, this workshop is recommended for those who want to try DIY even though it's their first time.

Gallery space "gareco"

Next to the craft classroom, there is a gallery space called "gareco". Exhibits change about twice a month. In addition to art works, a wide range of genres such as leather accessories and brass accessories are exhibited. There are no partitions such as walls, so you can visit the gallery for free, so it's an open gallery space where you can stop by while shopping or on your way home from the workshop.

Take the dedicated escalator to the 4th floor

Next, let's take a look at the 4th floor. To the 4th floor, take the special escalator installed in the center of the store. The space is designed to be as exciting as a theme park.

4th floor with a handsome and junk atmosphere

The 4th floor is a space that is closer to the atmosphere of the Toyohashi main store, based on the concept of "yard" with a rough image. This floor is recommended for those who like a manly atmosphere, such as pots and vases with a black base and old materials. Compared to the 3rd floor, plants are the main focus.

Part of the ceiling on the 4th floor is glass, so plenty of natural light comes in.

In one corner of the floor, work items such as bags and shirts are also available.

Unique but easy to care for!
Succulents & Air Plants

Succulent plants are recommended for those who want a unique plant that can be used as an interior decoration, or who like plants but are not good at taking care of them. In Garage, they have many small succulent plants that can be easily displayed in your room. Pots that are compatible with succulents are also on display, so you can imagine group planting on the spot.

Another recommended item is the “Air Plants”. A reassuring plant that fulfills its role as an interior decoration just by placing it. And the ease of use is also attractive. Although it depends on the type, it is basically an easy-to-grow plant because you just need to spray it with water.

An assortment of large bowls that you wouldn't expect in the city

At the back of the 3rd floor is a corner with large pots. Garage NAGOYA has a wide variety of large pot designs and sizes, despite its location, which is only about 3 minutes from Nagoya Station on the Aonami Line. Even in Nagoya city, there are not many shops that have such large pots and vases. Larger items can be delivered, so don't worry if you don't have a car.

Take a break at the cafe at the end

There is a cafe called "garage drop cafe" next to the gallery on the 3rd floor. This is a shop where you can enjoy lunch sets and specialty coffee. A nice place to take a break after enjoying the spacious store. If you participate in the workshop, you will get 100 yen off.

If you are interested in incorporating plants into your daily life, this is a store you should definitely visit at least once.
