VILLA Fuji Kawaguchiko AERO

VILLA Fuji Kawaguchiko AERO

Cruise with Fuji

On the shores of Lake Kawaguchiko,
at the foot of Mt. Fuji,

a completely private, exclusive-use villa
designed by world-renowned architect Kengo Kuma has been born—
a secluded retreat where architecture and nature exist in perfect harmony.

The project was conceived by Kazuhiro Fujihara (1955-),
an educational reformer descended from
the famed Kano painting school of the Edo period,
and architect Kengo Kuma (1954-), his lifelong friend of over thirty years.
“AERO” stands for Artists, Athletes, and Entrepreneurs in Residence One
—a home for those who embody creativity, vision and inspiration.
Bathed in the sacred energy of Mt. Fuji
—a UNESCO World Heritage Site with over 100,000 years of history
—AERO offers a borderless experience
where you become one with nature itself.
Here, guests are invited to create
new forms of art, ideas, and imagination.
The Invitation — MAKIMONO
The MAKIMONO (scroll) is not a brochure, but an invitation.
Only 100 exist in the world.There are three rules.
  1. Rule1 Invitation-only—only holders of the MAKIMONO may stay.
  2. Rule2 The AERO villa will only be available for 10 years.
  3. Rule3 Each person may stay only once in their lifetime.
Because the greatest masterpiece—
is not one that hangs on a wall—
it is the memories of your own life,
standing before Mt. Fuji,
in a moment that will never come again.
For there is no work of art
greater than a single human life—
and that is what the Theater Master believes.
