Tokyo Bay : Kenzo Tange
In the 1960s of Japan, the economics is growing super fast, and the population is expanded rapidly. There were a challenge to expand the territory of very dense Tokyo over its big bays. The project proposals are different from each architect.
Hisaakira Kano : His plan called "Yamato", the plan is to do a total land reclamation over the bay by using atomic bomb to excavated rock from the mountain to totally fill the bay. This plan later developed to the "Neo Tokyo" that are more variety of residence and complex industrial estate.
Kisho Kurokawa : The counter proposals of the Kano plan he purposed the structure that can floats on the water instead of total reclamation. The space is putting more focused on the residential area
Kenzo Tange : After his years of teaching at MIT, he came back to Japan and purposed plan using A-House design that he was developed when he was at MIT. The project is the explorations of planning between grounded infrastructure and floating structure.
Tang Lab : The most developed plan of Tokyo bay. Tange and his metabolist group at Tange lap were developed the Tokyo bay by develop each important aspects of the projects. (See further details in the Diagram)
Kiyonori Kikutage : His plan is develop the Manhattan like floating cities.
Hisaakira Kano : The new proposals that use the cells systems to mimic the structure and expansion of the city over the Tokyo bay.

The renders of what might look like if the Tokyo Bay project is actually build
The Residential Floating A-House
The design would have more connections of interior when every residences faced each others and created the sense of community while on the other sides is facing outsides for the privacy
The interior Space and Structure of the House
The connections of each individuals units to the outsides, and its space that created with the prefabricated elements. The house contain both modern and traditional elements mixed together.
The Office Buildings
The infrastructure located in the cord of the projects
