Nakagin Capsule Tower Bldg Kaitai Days
$45.00 AUD
Relive the final moments of a Metabolist masterpiece.
Nakagin Capsule Tower Bldg Kaitai Days (中銀カプセルタワービル 解体デイズ) is an intimate, deeply personal visual archive created by former resident Wakana Nitta (better known as Cosplay Koe-chan). From her window directly adjacent to the tower, Nitta captured thousands of photos and video logs, documenting the daily demolition of Tokyo's most iconic architectural landmark from start to finish.
Featuring the unique, tower-cube-shaped die-cut trim, this zine serves as both a historic record and a heartfelt eulogy to Kisho Kurokawa’s 1972 masterpiece. A must-have piece of archival history for architecture enthusiasts, urban explorers, and lovers of Japanese subculture alike.
