A pioneer residence with disaster-resilient system
Located in Tsujido, about 30 km away from Yokohama City in Kanagawa Prefecture, this project is one of the first residential buildings in the Shonan C-X development. It consists of 308 condominiums and is part of the largest urban redevelopment to be introduced in the warm climate and rich greenery of the Shonan living environment. Great efforts have been made to preserve and harmonize with the existing residences around the project in order to build a strong community. This is reflected in the facade design and the addition of an extensive green belt around the building, taking into consideration the landscape and environmental sustainability. The project preserves the original connections within the neighborhood and adds street-side space to create beauty and ensure pedestrian safety. This project was completed prior to the Great East Japan Earthquake, but still incorporated a higher than usual level of disaster preparedness features to become a model for future disaster-proof housing developments.
