Aman has opened its first standalone branded residential project, the Aman Residence, Tokyo.
The residences sit at the heart of the newly opened Azabudai Hills development, a self-described “city within a city” that includes the Aman Tokyo hotel, restaurants, shops and galleries in the cultural heart of the Japanese capital.
The 91 fully serviced apartments crown the very top 11 floors of the Azabudai Hills Mori JP Tower, the tallest residential building in Japan designed by the Pritzker prized architecture firm Pelli Clarke & Partners.
