If “home is where the heart is,” it stands to reason that the shape that home takes is essential to the lifestyle you’re trying to live. Gone are the days where an apartment was little more than “four walls and a roof” — now, the way the layout and overall visual design contribute to the feelings you get while you’re there are just as important as you have a place to live. Such is the case of Shibuya Apartment 202 by Hiroyuki Ogawa Architects, a space designed to be a clean, quiet place for rest — a Fortress of Solitude hidden in the heart of one of the most cutting-edge downtown areas in all of Asia.

Intended for vacation rental services like AirBnB, Shibuya Apartment 202 by Hiroyuki Ogawa Architects wasn’t just designed to be a quiet space — it’s decor and general architecture mimics a quiet, solemn cave. It’s a place for peace and self reflection. The walls and ceilings are finished in a dark-colored plaster, while the floors have been covered in a soft, plump carpet indicative of the comfortable resting space it was intended to be. Neon lights adorn the walls, allowing guests to both be reminded of the exciting times and adventures they can have in Shibuya without the literal hustle and bustle that actually comes with it. It’s the perfect vacation rental spot for both first time and long-time visitors to Tokyo.
