Japan Floating Houses

Redefining Earthquake Resilience — Introducing Japan’s Air Danshin System

Japan is pioneering a smarter way to safeguard homes during earthquakes. Instead of resisting tremors with heavy reinforcements, the Air Danshin System lifts homes using compressed air—creating a buffer between the ground and the structure.

• Seamless integration with existing homes
• Cost-efficient alternative to major retrofitting (~$37,000)
• Low-touch maintenance, fully sustainable
• Proven protection in real-world seismic events

An innovative leap in disaster-proof design—reshaping how cities can build safer, more resilient infrastructure.
