The quirky new tiny house trend in Japan
Aso Farm Land

 

Necessity is the mother of invention – these cute and quirky earthquake-proof dwellings were built in Kyushu, 550 metres above sea level in the Aso Kuju National Park.

The 450 individual domed huts are made from lightweight polystyrene foam and designed to follow the natural topography of the surrounding landscape.

Aso Farm Land, in Kyushu! This is a healing space filled with peace. All buildings are round domes nd the wall and the floor shaped well. 😏♡ Once you step out of the room, there are plenty of nature there. A refreshing plateau blows, seems that everyday fatigue will blow away just by taking a deep breath. 15/06/2017 #throwback www.facebook.com/PrimeFMJ #livejapan #travelgram #travelkyushu #kyushu #asofarm #farmland #onsen #peace #healing #domes #ricestory #kumamoto #여행사랑 #fmj #followmejapan #primefmj #japanrailpass #live

Part of Aso Farm Land health retreat near the southern Japanese city of Kumamoto, they have been built to withstand earthquakes the area is prone to and were put to the test last year during the Kunamoto earthquakes in April.

Looking puzzled !! #asofarm

Manager of Aso Farm Land resort, Masaya Konishi, manager told Reuters that “These dome rooms were completely unharmed.”

“Wind and earthquakes do not easily damage the dome houses because they have no beams that can be broken, Konishi said, adding that “Not a single pane of glass broke.”
