INTERVIEW
World Neighbors Gokokuji – An Artists Perspective
INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/incaseofbrit/ World Neighbors Gokokuji currently holds Social Apartments largest community. Boasting 180 rooms with tenants from all walks of life, this property offers the best opportunity for those who wish to socialize and make friends. Over the New Year period, our friend Brit stayed at World Neighbors Gokokuji for 3 days. Brit is a unique artist based in London, an avid traveler and a fan of Japan, she visits Japan yearly for artistic inspiration and to satisfy her curiosity in Japanese culture. If you are interested, check out Brit’s Instagram as she has an interesting page and a significant following. Aside from art and being a general people’s person, Brit dabbles in various scenes with many interests, and what better place for her to stay than at Social Apartment! Here we follow Brit’s 3 day adventure at World Neighbors Gokokuji. How was your stay at World Neighbors Gokokuji? My stay at World Neighbors Gokokuji was beyond my expectations! It has everything you could ever need! Study room, common room, kitchen, showers, even a Café! I felt at home straight away! Meet any cool people? I met some of the residents in the common areas and joined in with them playing the new Nintendo Switch. I also got to participate in a shodo event to celebrate the new year! How did you find the facilities, and what was your favorite? I loved the facilities, the huge kitchen, common spaces, work space and bathrooms were amazing. I felt like I was living in luxury! I really enjoyed waking up early just to take a bath and use the beauty room (including the massage chair). Oh, and the rooftop was perfect, and has the BEST views of Tokyo, it’s really easy to get creatively inspired when you have a view like that in your own apartment block! Living in this kind of community as an artist, does it inspire you, and if so how? I think that living in this type of community would definitely inspire and fuel my creativity – diversity and connecting with people is the best thing for being creative. I loved staying and drew whilst I was there – the rooftop is perfect to look over Tokyo and watch life, the work station room in the apartment is perfect for sitting down to design and meeting lots of the people who live there, all of whom have different hobbies and jobs – are totally inspiring. What did you think of Gokokuji as a neighborhood? I really like it! It’s peaceful, but still so close to the craziness of busier neighborhoods like Ikebukuro so you can have the best of both worlds. It is super easy to get to by train, because you can walk to Gokokuji Station or Shin-Otsuka Station – both are equally as close to the apartment! Would you consider living at Social Apartment? Absolutely, I love meeting new people, but still having my own space is important to me, and the apartment is a perfect compromise for people who really want to meet new people from all different walks of life. It’s such a great varied group of people who live there, it creates a brilliantly interesting community to live within! I wouldn’t think twice about living in a place like World Neighbors – it’s amazing. Any parting words you’d like to say? Thank you so much for my stay – it really enhanced my Tokyo experience and I can’t wait to move in one day!

Discover the Convenience and Vibrant Nature of Living in Oizumigakuen
Hey, my name is Rana from the Sales team! I recently became the staff in charge of our  Social Apartment Oizumigakuen. I took a day outing to better understand the area so let me share a peak at what living in Oizumigakuen offers. If you have never heard of Oizumigakuen then you are missing out. One of Tokyo’s best ranked places to live, Oizumigakuen offers not only beautiful and abundant nature but also convenient access to the center of the city, just 16 minutes to Ikebukuro station by train. First, Oizumigakuen station gives you access to Ikebukuro in 16 minutes, Shinjuku in 26 minutes, and Shibuya in 33 minutes. While the train is convenient enough, there are also over 1000 buses that run through the area allowing easy avenue to anywhere that the train doesn’t go directly. There are also plenty of bicycle parking spaces around the station for local excursions. Out the North exit you will come face to face with some of Oizumigakuen’s interesting culture and history. Astro Boy will be there to welcome you at the Anime Gate. Oizumigakuen is actually home to Toei Animation Studios and is known as the birthplace of Japanese Anime. Everything from old school Ranma ½ to the infamous One Piece is brought to life right here! Anybody know Tomorrow’s Joe (Ashita no Joe)? Anime aside, the Toei Filming Studio’s are also close by which is needless to say exciting for any film fan. Especially since T-JOY Seibu Oizumi exhibits a 9-screen cinema to enjoy the latest films on the big screen right next to where some of them were produced! Throughout the station vicinity there are various stores and shopping centers. On the North side, Grand Emio, the opposite side Yumeria Fuente and more provide you with all your fashion, food and other needs. (Yummy Lunch at To The Herbs at Yumeria Fuente) At Yumeria Fuente there is also a Starbucks, and for those late nights a large grocery store open until 1AM. Of course there are also closer grocery stores by Social Apartment Oizumigakuen so you have plenty of choices. Just a short walk from the station there is also Oak Plaza which has fitness gym JOYFIT, and a Daiso as well as other stores. From the station it takes about a 15 minute walk to Social Apartment Oizumigakuen. Or you could use the bus which will get you there in just 5 minutes. With buses every 5 minutes or so the bus stop just 2 minutes from the property is extremely convenient. You can even directly access the ever popular Kichijouji and Asagaya from the bus stop. (Kitazono Bus Stop, just 2 minutes from Social Apartment Oizumigakuen) In addition to the access, Oizumigakuen is well known for its nature. Over 55 acres, Shakuji Park is one of the largest parks in all of Tokyo following Ueno Park. For sports enthusiasts you can find tennis courts, basketball courts and even a baseball and soccer field here! (Golfers can use the driving range next to the property!) Nature lovers will not be disappointed, as you enter the park you will find yourself surrounded by a vibrant forest famous for bird watching. Trek deeper, you may come upon one of the two large ponds. With the crisp air, greenery and peaceful ripples on the pond as ducks passed by, your worries will float away as relaxation takes over. The perfect spot to enjoy every season encompassed by the great outdoors away from the concrete jungle. There is plenty more to discover every time you visit the park, including the many small shrines and even the remains of Shakuji castle. As I walked from park towards the station I was greeted by a gorgeous sunset. Generous convenience and bountiful nature, Oizumigakuen certainly is rightfully highly ranked as one of the best places to live. Enjoy the Social Apartment lifestyle of advanced design, an exciting community paired with plenty of privacy. You can find more about Social Apartment Oizumigakuen here.

The Yurakucho line will take you up to Nagatacho, Ichigaya and Iidabashi areas. Finally the rarely crowded Fukutoshin line runs through Meijijingu (Harajuku), Higashi-Shinjuku, and Shibuya. The excellent access has made Ikebukuro a hotspot for entertainment and authentic eating. The Sunrise towers feature many fun activities such as the recently popular Team Lab exhibition where you can be literally pulled into a fantastic light experience.

3 reasons why Social Apartment is the best place to live in Japan!
Still wondering why our Social Apartments are the most popular lifestyle accommodations among Japanese people, and why they are so much popular and coveted by foreigners? You found us but you are still hesitant to walk the step? Let us give you few reasons why our Social Apartments are the best place to live! We believe that SOCIAL APARTMENT represents a new standard in what life in a shared property can look like. While one of the main concerns that most people have is the lack of privacy in a shared apartment, we meticulously design our properties to have the perfect blend of private space and public interaction. With your private room kept perfectly separate, feel free to enjoy the public spaces on your own terms. This new balance of social and secluded provides opportunities for you to meet new people, forge new relationships, and enjoy the full spectrum of human interaction, all from the comfort of your own home. Each of our property has their own unique features. In addition, while many shared apartments leave cleaning of common spaces to be decided by residents themselves, we go the extra mile and send our own cleaning staff multiple times a week to make sure that the public spaces are kept in great shape. This frees up our residents to really focus on the enjoyable parts of a shared lifestyle, instead of getting bogged down in the constant delegation of chores and other such items that might arise in a normal share-house. Still not convinced? Here is our top 3 why you should live in a Social Apartment ! 1.) Incomparable Quality! We firmly believe that sharing should not be synonymous with a dip in quality, and we strive to create the kind of designer spaces that our residents can be excited to live in. All of our lounges and common spaces are carefully designed to create the finest environment possible for forging relationships. We believe that our customers deserve the best, so we strive to provide it for them in whatever way possible.While one of the main concerns that most people have is the lack of privacy in a shared apartment, we also meticulously design our properties to have the perfect blend of private space and public interaction. We take the design of spaces very seriously, and if you talk to any of our staff, they are typically able to articulate some of our main design philosophies and how they contribute to the makeup of our portfolio. That’s why it’s been a really great point of pride to collaborate with some of the best in the design and architecture industry here in Japan. For example, our main collaborator is also famous for designing many cafes for a famous Japanese chain, and we’ve worked with several well-known artists to provide graphics and design elements for our properties. 2.) Much more than just a place to sleep! Starting from the stylish designer lounges, our residents have a variety of amenities provided to bring more fulfilling social interactions to their lives. These include in-house cafes, billiard rooms, fitness studios, business lounges, and rooftop terraces just to name a few. These spaces allow our residents to experience a standard of living that you could never dream of in a simple one-room apartment. Because the facilities provided, and the concept implemented at each property are ever so slightly different, the type of community that springs up is also different from property to property. 3.) Real cultural immersion in a Japanese environment! There is no better way to understand the Japanese way of thinking and Japanese culture than to live with Japanese people. Our international and Japanese residents are learning new things from each other every day, and with the strong relationships they forge at Social Apartments, our internationals are ready for whatever life in Japan may throw at them. Overall, we are committed to providing a shared environment that is also of an exceedingly high quality. It’s a bit of a new idea, particularly here in Japan, but we think our company’s success is a clear indication as to the level of interest Japanese people actually have in the kind of lifestyle we are providing. COME EXPERIENCE SOCIAL APARTMENT FOR YOURSELF! Grab your spot in one of our viewing sessions, come and see for yourself, and join in with the Social Apartment community of your choice today!
