Conceived as a modern urban village, Toranomon-Azabudai weaves together a dynamic and innovative mixed-use development. Tora Asa will rise from the development as a new visual landmark in Tokyo. Topped by four curved glass petals, the tower is expected to become the Japan’s tallest building upon completion, standing just shy of the nearby landmark Tokyo Tower. At over 300 meters in height, Tora Asa will become Japan's tallest building upon completion, just shy of the nearby Tokyo Tower.The Toranomon-Azabudai site, located next to other major recent developments, will connect into a new international urban center with an economic and cultural focus.As a true mixed-use development, the project’s three towers will include offices, residences, a hotel, an international school, retail shops, restaurants and cultural facilities. The development is three towers in total. Alongside the taller mixed-use tower there will be two residential towers. Aman, the operator of world-class luxury hotels and resorts, has branded one tower as Aman Residences and the other Janu Tokyo, Aman's luxury hotel brand. Janu Tokyo will mark Aman's Japan debut.The Tora Asa site is envisioned to be a “city where people can flee to” in the event of a natural disaster. The towers are designed to ensure infrastructure stability and incorporate earthquake-resistant technologies by applying data captured from the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. The site will also include temporary shelter space and an emergency supply warehouse. Client: Mori Building Co Size: 7,079,000 sq. ft Height: 1,083 ft Completion: 2023 Firm Role: Design Architect
