      you just have to consider, that sweden is a lot colder then japan and as far as i know, in sweden the standert are vacum isolated windwos 3 panal coated windows are the standert in germany. should not be the standert in sweden.

    • @83regaleagle
      @83regaleagle 7 лет назад +7

      lokalkakan I know, eh? I'm from Canada, & even in the "wimpy" part (ie south west coast), double pane windows is normal, if not triple or gas/vacuum. Plus all the things on electric panels, i kept wondering what the heck they do when the power goes out in winter! Though maybe they don't loose power as often as we do?

    • @CraziiBunnieSuki
      @CraziiBunnieSuki 7 лет назад +7

      as a person from one window panel country, why do you guys have 2? whats the purpose of it?

    • @AM-xt4jj
      @AM-xt4jj 7 лет назад +26

      CraziiBunnieSuki multiple panels, as indicated by the comments before, help insulating a house. Especially in winter the heat does not escape as easily. It does help keeping a house cool in summer as well. Another reason can be that it helps against the noise level of a busy street for example.

      @josketobben 7 лет назад +63

      They have appreciation for empty space stemming from buddist philosophy, for one. In the West the common sense is that space is just like.. nothing, and you're already a special kind of designer (e.g. minimalist) when you see beyond that.

    • @Juke172
      @Juke172 7 лет назад +45

      yeah it looks simplistic and modern. but without that useless bling bling decour that doesn't do anything else than raise the price. I like it has lots of functionality, maybe even too much. But I guess that's what you're paying for in those houses.

    Interesting that the home sales tour is not focused on "here's the living room, you know what do with it, here's the hallway, here's the bathroom" , but rather on here are the modern electronic features and this is how they work and how to control them. I also suspect that the wiring in the window glass and the sliding outdoor window covers are not about crime security, but about being able to ride out a severe weather event.

    • @prepperjonpnw6482
      @prepperjonpnw6482 4 года назад +14

      He explained that the wires windows were in case of fire. The glass doesn’t shatter and blow everywhere, instead it cracks and falls out in one big piece. It’s kind of like safety glass for car windshields.

    I had lived in Osaka for more than a week and it was a sensational experience. It's a country that full of "convenience" ideas, with regard to transportation, food, establishments that is at your fingertips , and even the people were so polite that they will help you if they feel you've lost your way.
    I just thought about residing in Japan, but I need to learn their language first, for me to not feel the "homesick" that the usual foreigner living in other countries had experienced.
    This is also the country that is full of innovators. You can see it right throughout the video if you watched until the end, that even the smallest things they can market it and make you believe that it is important to your life(don't get me wrong, I am not pertaining that they are lying to you to buy their stuff, I have never experienced that during my trip, I just noticed their conviction to everything they want to sell).

    That door stopper is much better and effective than old door stoppers, stuck to the wall and on a spring. Some make the door come back onto you and break easily. The home was how I imagine something made by and for the Japenese, functional, practical, light colours and love the extra toilet functions esp washing and a warm seat for cold days! They really are polite people and not like UK estate agents who are pushy (not all but quite a lot 😅).

On top of that, there are bigger parks, but you may need to ride your bike 15-30 minutes to get to one, but not too bad. I always thought I'd want a house with a backyard, but honestly, I don't miss it. And you're right, no maintenance needed. Whenever I want green or open space, there's places I can easily get to. Also, the side streets are very pedestrian friendly, so kids will often play out on the street without worry about cars running them over.

They have a detailed plan/brochure of the design, size, it's distance to the nearest supermarkets, train stations etc. Plus the minimalism design is perfect and so clean you would want to rent all of them!

In the UK you could not leave your door unlocked even to go to a local shop for some essential supplies. Got to lock the door and close the windows and if you go away it is essential to use the window locks even for a week's holiday, close the gate, if you have 1, and even use timed light switches to make it look like someone is home at night.
