The “Shibuya pyramid” will be demolished this month


It's one of Tokyo's most unique buildings. If you're into weird bubble era architecture, go check it out before it's gone.

This building was designed in 1985 by architect Yuzo Nagata as the Tokyo branch office of Miki Shoji, the company known for its Miki Prune. At the time, this was the last project that Nagata, who was an employee of Takenaka Corporation, worked on before going independent, and the unique design suggests that he was not an architect suited to working for an organization.
