Step Tower is a stark white, beautiful ten-story apartment building located in the city of Ibaraki in Osaka. Step Tower got its name because the balconies of the rooms make the building look as if it were steps climbing into the sky.
Step Tower is located in the middle of a large shopping district in Ibaraki that usually consists of buildings that are only five-stories and containing many bright colors. So the Eastern Design Office really wanted to make the all white, ten-storied Step Tower stand out.The Eastern Design Office designed Step Tower with the intentions of creating, “A stark white ship that sails in the middle of the bustling sea of colors.”
