Tokyo Building Designs : Architecture Japan

Contemporary Japanese Architecture + Property Developments

post updated 17 December 2023

We’ve selected what we feel are the key examples of Tokyo Building Designs. We aim to include buildings that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both.

We cover completed buildings, new building designs, architectural exhibitions and design competitions across Tokyo. The focus is on contemporary Japanese buildings but information on key traditional buildings is also welcome.
