■ Spatial and building design that combines quality and comfort

The property has a high-visibility location in Azabu 4 chome, Minato-ku. It is a large-scale senior residence with 36 floors above ground and 421 units in total. Taking advantage of the qualities of the local Nishiazabu neighborhood, known for many years as an upscale residential area, the elegant building is designed to harmonize with its surroundings. The project is also sensitive to the local environment, with plans to plant many evergreens on the side facing Roppongi-dori.

Communal areas include a lobby lounge styled like that of a luxury hotel and a library, offering spaces where residents can spend time in comfort. Residential units offer design and quality that make the most of Mitsui Fudosan Residential's condominium business know-how, as well as the functionality required for senior residences such as space to turn wheelchairs around, ambient sensor-based monitoring systems, and entry and exit management using card keys.

■ Approx. 23,680ft2 (2,200m2) private garden with abundant greenery offering ever-changing views of the four seasons

An approx. 23,680ft2 (2,200m2) private garden is planned, where residents can enjoy walks in safety. Residents can also relax and enjoy views of nature in the tea pavilion located in the garden.

The building is designed to provide views of the courtyard greenery from various internal locations, such as the lobby lounge and library on the first floor. The building's design is based on the biophilic design principle that incorporating natural elements in the design of a building contributes to the health, happiness, and comfort of its occupants.

About biophilic design

Biophilic design is an approach to architectural design that has gained favor in recent years. It applies biophilia (a concept proposed by American psychologist Edward O. Wilson, meaning the innate human love of nature) to the environment to enhance health and comfort. Biophilic design is expected to reduce stress and re-energize occupants by enhancing their direct and indirect connection with nature.

2. Restaurant service provided by the Imperial Hotel and spa fitness service that supports health maintenance ■ Restaurant service provided by the Imperial Hotel

The spacious top floor dining room with a double-height (approx. 6m) ceiling will be the first in a paid nursing home to provide meals cooked and served by the Imperial Hotel (one of Japan's most prestigious hotels). Residents can enjoy the traditional, top-quality cuisine of the Imperial Hotel, which first opened as Japan's State Guest House.

The dining room will serve a nutritionally balanced set menu of the day as well as an a la carte menu, while the tea pavilion - a detached building by a private garden - will serve continental breakfast, tea and coffee.

■ Spa fitness floor for daily use to maintain health

The spa & fitness floor on the ninth floor is fully equipped with a special jet massage pool, whose water temperature, depth, and flow settings are based on medical evidence, as well as a sauna, communal bath, fitness room, and treatment room.

The design, supervision, and operation of the spa fitness floor is outsourced to WELD (Wellness Development Corp). We plan to provide exercise programs for the pool and fitness room. The company runs facilities and services nationwide, and develops products that utilize natural therapy methods medically/scientifically proven to be effective. The spa & fitness floor will also utilize its know-how to provide services that help maintain residents' health with daily use.
