Development History
Development Concept
Consideration for scenery and the environment
Tadao Ando was appointed as the architect for the design of the facility, giving primary consideration to the harmony of scenery and environment at historical Omotesando. Plants and trees are placed on the rooftop proactively, and the height of the building is curtailed so that is the same as the Zelkova trees lining the avenue, by maximizing underground space and making effective use of it. Greenery was added to the north side wall surface in April 2007, seven types of trees and plants were planted to add color from season to season, producing verdant scenery that blends with the Zelkova trees. Furthermore, the scenery of the old "Dojunkai" apartments is engraved in people's memories, and there was a desire to pass this on to the next generation. Consequently, it was regenerated as "Dojunkan". In addition, while carefully nurturing the history and culture of the district, such as with new environmental considerations such as "canals" using rainwater, various schemes are implemented in order to become closer to many people indefinitely.
Contribution to the region
The facility functions as a disaster prevention center due to such measures as water wells for disasters, as well as contributing to greater convenience locally due to the establishment of a passage that goes through it for pedestrians from Omotesando Street to the north side of the facility, and making underground floors 4 to 6 parking lots (total 196 spaces, another 20 spaces for residences)
Residences
The total number of residences provided on the upper level of the building is 38. In the dwelling unit plan, one can look out on the Zelkova tree-lined avenue from a window, with all of them south-facing, with a focus on 1LDKs.
