Unusual Architecture in Tokyo - Reversible Destiny Lofts Mitaka

Fri, July 31, 2009, by Muza-chan

Today I discovered in Tokyo a strange yet beautiful building complex, Reversible Destiny Lofts.

Reversible Destiny Lofts Mitaka

This unusual architectural concept, created by Shusaku Arakawa and Madeline Gins, is accompanied by a very interesting theory, saying that people, at home, shouldn’t relax, they should be in an environment that stimulates the senses and invigorates their lives!
Here are some photos:

Astăzi am descoperit în Tokyo un complex de clădiri neobişnuit, dar frumos, Reversible Destiny Lofts.

Acest concept arhitectural neobişnuit, creat de Shusaku Arakawa şi Madeline Gins, este însoţit de o teorie foarte interesantă, care spune că oamenii, acasă, nu ar trebui să se relaxeze, ci ar trebui să trăiască într-un mediu care să le stimuleze simţurile şi să le învioreze vieţile!

The theory stresses that particularly older people, shouldn’t sit back, which makes them decline. They should live in an environment that can boost immunity and increase longevity… like these buildings.

Teoria subliniază că mai ales oamenii în vârstă, ar trebui să trăiască într-un mediu care să le crescă imunitatea şi să stimuleze longevitatea… cum ar fi aceste clădiri.
