Description
The landmark Nakagin Capsule Tower in Tokyo is to be demolished, after a long battle to save the building and its space-age units. Completed in 1972 and designed by renowned architect Kisho Kurokawa, the tower is an example of the Metabolism movement, which aimed to create sustainable living spaces that people could take with them if they moved.
