New Bookshop for Creatives, Collectors and Keiki Opens In Honolulu
All about that Bās.
What’s more tragic than a Shakespeare love story? The number of local bookstores we have in Honolulu. You can count them on one hand. Well, two now. Thanks to wife and husband, Aly Ishikuni-Sasaki and Travis Sasaki, the owners of recently opened Bās it’s pronounced base and refers to the core part of something Bookshop. “We founded the shop together with the belief that reading is fundamental,” shares Aly.
If you’re familiar with the design-lovin’ duo, you’re familiar with their wholehearted commitment to fill spaces (physically and metaphorically) in the local art community. Take Bās for instance. The shop, next to Roberta Oaks on Nu‘uanu Avenue, is home to literary works that are rich in fashion, architectural design, music, photography and other colorful topics that spark vision, imagination and excellence.
