I like it very much, probably one of my favourite properties so far (although the "art" is probably a joke from the artist that rich people didn't understand), but it's funny that a 300m² apartment has such a tiny kitchen. Put a microwave, a coffee maker, a toaster and a rice cooker there and you don't even have enough space to chop a carrot.

My only problem is that the kitchen has not enough preparation areas and this is a major issue. It's like a 1-1.5 meters in the kitchen. Considering that there are two fridges and two ovens, I have almost no room to prepare all my foods, this is the least least thought out part of the design. I'd rather have a single fridge, a wine cooler, an oven and a longer counter than this set up. Either that or an island counter should have been installed instead of the kitchen lattices.
@aussiestallion69
@aussiestallion69 Жыл бұрын
Actually it was just one fridge and one freezer, nothing special at all. I’m sure the lattice was there so that a private chef could plate up the food in the so called kitchen and then deliver it to the table, and be able to discreetly see at what stage people were at with their meals.

Yeah a kitchen without an island is just.. not done.. if you can afford it. The difference in enjoyment is night and day, an island makes you feel connected to the room whereas a normal kitchen just has you looking at the wall. I'd be really unhappy with this kitchen for that amount of money.

I totally agree with you guys. Even though I'm used to the fact that Japanese kitchens are tiny as hell and made me stop trying to actually cook for myself, for this amount of money, I'd surely want a kitchen with more space. However, I think that a person who can afford this place won't be really concerned about the kitchen because they most likely won't use it for day to day cooking anyway.

I agree that daylight appears in the basement but the presenter also has all the lights on. I think it would be gloomy most of the time. Even though this might have more daylight than 99% of apartments in Tokyo they do not cost $13 million. Despite the artfully stacked granite this is essentially an expensive place with no views--even the entry level glimpses the street--and people on the street see inside (through the metal slats). Also the washi glass reveals too much that should be concealed--the unaesthetic closet framework. In addition, I am less concerned that it has a car elevator as I am about the number of parking spaces for this expensive unit--I hope it has more than just one. I like the neighborhood but it's far from being Kengo Kuma's best work.

Awesome video again! But the problem I have with all those luxurious Japanese apartments (in this and other videos) is that basically it's about size and location. The interior is usually quite standard for a nice place in - let's say - Europe, but nothing special. And they all usually lack soul. It's something that an ambassador of a big country might get in their 4 years stay in Tokyo. It's more places to show off than to live in. This place is marketed by the Kengo Kuma name, but to be honest I wouldn't but it even if I had the money. The exterior is just hideous. And the interior is just okay, or not so functional in places (kitchen is too small). The "art" on the walls must be a joke lol So yeah, you pay $13M for 300m2 in Kita-senju. Not for the amazing house.

Yea the house is your typical millionaire "mansion" where an architect wants everything to be artistic and 5 meanings. The interior is sterile and boring. The entire house lacks soul and seems randomly put together. Its the opposite of a cosy home. Giant inbuild storage that are simply large wooden doors where everything looks the same. Big yikes form me, huge waste of space and money. 1/10.

I think the condo has a bad design. Kengo Kuma may be a very good architect for stadiums or large structures, but house design is not his forte. The iron bars around the house give me the feeling of being in a prison. Kengo Kuma could use this idea for other public structures, but it’s not suitable for a house. The bathrooms are horrible. For a $13m+ house, I would expect more luxurious bathrooms. The colors of the furniture and wallpaper are unappealing; there is too much cream and yellow. A little bit of black or grey would give a much more luxurious feeling. Overall, it doesn’t feel like a very expensive house. Yes, the ceilings are high and the single-pane walls are nice, but these are not the most creative design ideas. With that potential in my hands, i would try to do much more. I think Kengo Kuma has stopped working hard due to his age and is letting his name speak for itself.

Love that there is a lot of glass used it makes this house look more open and has plenty of natural light. Kitchen is really small, they can extend it tho, just move those rails and make it open plan, put a central island for cooking and chopping. Then it will be a perfect family home

You should realize why property is so outrageously expensive in your opinion. I lived in Japan. I was in this area during all my days off. Japan is amazing. And it's so crowded, they are brilliant in their engineering. But I can promise you Americans in america could not do it. Half the country could not live in California and thrive and be successful. But I'm curious, how much do you think this house should cost, since you're an expert and all?

Hi Alex! Could you possibly do a series where you use a different budget level for each video? Like “what you can get in Tokyo for under $1000\140,000¥, $2000/275,000¥, $3000\410,000¥ $5000\680,000¥. Then for each budget level, show like 3 places: one in prime location (center of city), one mid way from the center, and lastly, one in the out skirts?? That would be so awesome to see what you can get! Oops- sorry. I just read the description of your channel. My suggestion does not scream “most exclusive” properties. But it still would be cool to see.

So I’ve been watching your channel for a month or so now and I’m really a big fan! One thing I’m curious about when it comes to these Japanese homes is why they all have single sinks in the kitchen? I’m a 40 year old American and I’ve only ever had double sinks in every place I’ve ever lived. And even in other homes I’ve visited or seen, they almost always have double sinks. The single sinks just seem strange and less useful than doubles. Other differences like lack of ovens and dryers, the shoe closets, the shower/bath setups, etc… I understand these. But the kitchen sink things just throws me for a loop lol. If I ever bought a place like these, the first thing I’d do is convert the single sink to a double sink. Anyway, love the channel. Keep up the good work!

the kitchen is terrible. two fridges, two ovens, two wine fridges, but no space to put a coffee machine, kettle, etc. no space to work on. I would replace one oven with a microwave and remove one fridge to have a coffee and kettle setup there, and there would still be too little work space.

So the wine coolers are below the ovens? Where is the additional counter space to warrant two ovens and a massive fridge ?

The wallpaper looks better than those paintings so those are the first things I'd remove. The only one I'd ever even consider putting up is the very first red painting which appears to have some resemblence of thought behind it but it ultimately feels like a wallpaper too. The rest are literally a 7 year olds paintings

I would love to see a little bit more workspace in the kitchen though - would have removed one of the two ovens in exchange for more work space. I need my space for my rice cooker and hot water dispenser 🤣But I guess I won't need to do much cooking if I were living in a food heaven like Tokyo 🤣🤣The texture of the wallpaper is lovely. I love the en-suites at the lower level :D I do wish having a powder room at the living room area for guests though.

You can literally get *double* that square footage in the U.S. for $300,000 - $400,000. The idea of spending $18 MILLION on that is just beyond bewildering to me.

The house is nice, but the lack of privacy would drive me insane. Those metal bars do absolutely nothing for you, let's be honest... It's at street level.... People can look straight into your house. I'd never feel comfortable. Also it seems to have a lack of counter space problem. The kitchen and even the bathrooms don't have much counter space. But it's a pretty house

I‘ll probably never understand the reputation of Miele products outside Germany. They used to be high quality like 30 years ago, but nowadays they’re (at least among literally everyone I know) rather infamous for breaking easily and being so freaking eco friendly that they basically don’t do their job anymore (like a tumble dryer that runs for 5 hours and the laundry is still wet). I‘m starting to wonder, if there are different production lines. 🤔

The wine coolers below the ovens? I hope there is good insulation. And the ovens have very little height. Good luck fitting a turkey in there. As others have noted, so little prep room.
