Daylight architecture tokyo city

In Tokyo, the architecture surprises with its geometric precision. Many buildings seem to be designed from simple shapes — squares, rectangles, cuboids — stacked like Lego pieces. This modular construction gives the city a unique visual rhythm, where each block fits together either harmoniously or in an almost playful way.

​

What stands out is how these very straight volumes coexist: a sleek glass tower can rise next to an older building with irregular edges, or even a small, unadorned concrete structure. The result is a highly graphic urban landscape, where verticality and repeated forms create an aesthetic that is at once strict and abundant. Tokyo becomes a kind of life-size model, inviting the eye to recognize each “piece” within this architectural tangle.
