And that's the main reason that many Japanese homes are so cold in the winter, because they are mostly made of woods to handle lateral loads out of the fixed budget and insulation only came second. You may have noticed that many homes (including anime ones) have kotatsu, a heated wooden table with heavy blanket, in their rooms. Because otherwise it would be freezing cold, often a single digit degrees Celcius...

It's called Azabudai Hills. I will be renting here when it's complete. My previous apartments were all by the same developer so I have no doubt they will do a great job with the interior. The perks of living in a higher-end apartment like this is they have all the amenities so I don't have to pay separate for a gym which can cost $200 a month, and things like Karaoke rooms, concierge to collect your packages when you're out, ease of access to shops and restaurants for late night munching, golf simulators and many more. Did I mention a pool? Japanese apartments, even high-end ones almost never have pools. This is one of the few ones.

Japan is really serious in terms of segregation and recycling as they have very little natural resources so they recycle as much as they can and this allows them to have their "own" resources. For example if you want to demolish old house to build a new one all materials that can be recycled from the old house needs to be recycled. Recycling is also big part in everyday life of people there, for example if you bought launch in the plastic box you need to wash it, dry it and then you can throw it to the correct garbage can otherwise your trash won't be picked up as garbage bags are transparent so during the pickup they are checked if trash in them are correctly sorted, if not you will get a note that you need to segregate trash again correctly before they can be picked up.

Really appreciate that the B1M team decides to cover on the Azabudai Hills project by Mori Building, covering the engineering aspects of the project, on how it was designed to withstand earthquake. B1M's videos in the past not only features the engineering aspect of projects, but also the social and environmental aspects of it, which I think also fascinates me for all the projects that Mori Building has build. Mori Building pioneered the redevelopment in Tokyo since the 1970s, with renowned projects including ARK Hills, Toranomon Hills, Roppongi Hills, where they successfully persuaded households to support these massive redevelopment projects by visiting each house and shops to convince them the advantages of the redevelopment. Also, Mori Building envisioned that these mixed-use redevelopments would allow its tenants to work and live in the same area, reducing the need for commuting and relieve the load on public transport. Of course, not to mention that they tear down the shorter and densely-packed buildings to build skyscrapers, providing a larger green public space. Hope there could also be a video by B1M about these aspects of Mori Building's redevelopment. 😉

As a 25 year resident of Tokyo I can definitely say that the construction of buildings here are amazing. I was working during the 2011 disaster and had to walk roughly 20 KMs just to get to my friend's apartment. Along the way there weren't that many buildings destroyed. Mostly chaos from public transportation being cut from the electricity. Anyway the building I was in shook hard, it was horrendous to witness. Outside as time went by and the aftershocks kicked in was another amazing spectacular scene. All buildings around were swaying and groaning, a sound which I will never forget ❗ Yet, they didn't fall down ❗❗ Mind you, we only had a 7-ish magnitude, compared to what they had up North must have been so much more scary.

The British have always been innovative but a lot of our best architects, civil engineers and other help build great structures abroad, and not so much in the U.K.
