The Nakagin Capsule Tower is a unique architectural structure located in Tokyo, Japan. Designed by architect Kenzō Tange and completed in 1972, it consists of 140 prefabricated capsules that serve as individual living and working spaces. The building is a notable example of Metabolism, a post-war architectural movement that emphasized modular and flexible designs. Each capsule measures about 10 square meters and is equipped with basic amenities. The tower was intended to be a temporary solution to urban housing shortages, but it has become an iconic symbol of modernist architecture. Despite its historical significance, the building faces challenges related to maintenance and preservation.
