Tokyo has a certain quirky culture of its own. I wouldn't be surprised if the owner is never home and is primarily occupied by the parents only.

Before, Tokyo had the reputation that it's workers just go home to sleep; nowadays they work so much, don't even bother commuting home at all. It's why capsule hotels is such a thriving industry there; that and manga cafes and Karaoke bars.

Japanese architecture never ceases to amaze me. Pure genius in my opinion.

Everyone passing by can watch you change. Basically a spectical for the entire neighboorhood, but, I guess it can work for some people.

that's ironic.

he drives an older mercedes 190E in japan yet he says he has no money.

i wouldn't mind living in a place like that as a bachelor suite but that's too small to be shared by another person. especially if it's my mom.

It amazes me how beautiful that house is. The area this guy lives in is one of the poorest areas in HK. The outside is horrendous but the inside is a penthouse! Or atleast designed like one

This idea is cool, but what if you have some hot lady friends over and suddenly needed to get rid of that burrito you ate yesterday?

If the washroom were a distinct area, I can see this working though.
