At first glance, it may look like an impressively high stack of dangerously placed front load washing machines. What it is, in fact, is the concept of Japan’s famous capsule hotels taken to its logical extreme: an entire apartment building made of nothing but capsules. 140 of them, in fact.
With only a few questions, we were able to learn that this structure has two core pillars, and the 140 capsules were attached to them from bottom to top. This laundromat-looking building is called Nakagin Capsule Tower, it is located in Ginza, Tokyo, and, sadly, it is a long-standing landmark whose future might be in jeopardy. Luckily, there is a group of determined people working to save it.
