Description

Move one island to the left.


Kurokawa regarded the city as an organic process and its residents as urban nomads. The architect created two interconnected towers, to which 144 prefabricated live/work capsules were clipped. The individual capsules had completely standardised and built-in furnishings, and were replaceable.
