OUR STORY

Vision

We believe in the potential of cities
because we believe in human potential.

Living in a city means
every individual is valued
and can live with dignity.
Living in a city means
inspiring one another
to live creatively.
Living in a city means
connecting diverse strengths
to expand human potential.
Mori Building keeps asking
what cities should become.
Striving toward bold ideals,
we continue to create and nurture cities.

People can envision the ideal.

When people gather, cities emerge.
Cities are human at their core.
What does it mean to “live a fulfilling life?”
We keep returning to this question.
We envisioned an ideal “compact city”
where daily life unfolds within walking distance.
Living, working, learning, playing, connecting, relaxing—
diverse urban functions seamlessly integrated.
Our method is the “Vertical Garden City.”
We design cities three-dimensionally, utilizing sky
and underground space to expand greenery at ground level.
The challenge of Mori Building and the Hills
is to pursue what a city should be,
with people at its center.

People can bridge past and future.

Building ideals
from scratch might be easier.
Yet we wanted to create
the ideal city in the heart of Tokyo.
In established city centers,
urban redevelopment is the only path forward.
We’ve built trust through
honest dialogue with every stakeholder.
Creating cities means accepting responsibility
for the future of everyone who lives there.
Realizing ideals takes time.
But shared dreams and vision unite people.
When people from different walks of life join hands,
past and future connect.
Our approach to building cities reflects these principles.

People can unite their strengths.

No one builds cities alone.
The higher we aim and the more boldly
we challenge what’s never been done,
the more collective strength it takes.
We design futures not yet formed.
When needed, we review infrastructure entirely.
We collaborate with partners across every field
to envision what each city requires.
We honor local culture
and the hopes of our residents,
bringing everything together
to shape cities of singular character.
We believe the skill and passion of everyone involved
becomes the driving force behind cities.
We move forward with the finest partners for this reason.

People can deepen their bonds.

Cities grow richer with time.
True city-making begins after opening day.
While a city’s novelty may peak at launch,
the bonds between people can always grow stronger.
We value not only creating cities but also nurturing their ongoing life.
That’s Mori Building’s “Town Management” philosophy.
We energize places through vibrant events.
We deepen ties through everyday community life.
We link everyone who touches the city.
So that every visit brings
new encounters and discoveries.
So that cities grow more brilliant with age.
Mori Building’s Town Management
ensures this envision endures.

People generate magnetic force.

Cities are where everything converges.
Culture and business emerge here.
Cities accelerate the future.
As global competition between cities intensifies,
Tokyo faces its own test.
We’ve responded by building
what we call “comprehensive urban strength”
and tackling challenges from a city-wide perspective.
And now Tokyo enters a new stage.
Each Hills development brings essential urban functions together.
As they connect into unified districts,
they generate new magnetic force.
Tokyo has the potential to become the world’s leading city.
We believe great cities move nations forward.
Mori Building creates that urban magnetism.
