Metabolism and the City of the Future
A short documentary about Kurokawa Kisho's Nakagin Capsule Tower, located in the heart of Tokyo, Japan. The tower houses 140 self-contained units and was one of the few buildings realized as part of the 1960s Japanese architectural movement known as Metabolism. The name of the movement was a biological metaphor for how architecture could be designed with the ability to evolve, accommodating growth and changing societal needs.
