A very unique apartment in the heart of Akasaka is listed for sale. The 130 sqm apartment was originally designed and owned by Kisho Kurokawa, a very famous Japanese architect and founder of the Metabolist Movement.
Kurokawa designed the 14-storey Churis Akasaka building and was given free reign to design the 11th floor as his personal residence. His main residence was a 300 sqm apartment on the southern side of the 11th floor, with the 130 sqm apartment on the northern side used as his tea and reception rooms. The two apartments both had access to the only private rooftop terrace in the building.Read more
