Introducing the EL FARO Shimoma I

Miyoshin Enterprise, headquartered in Meguro, Tokyo, has reached a milestone by completing the 80th apartment in its EL FARO series, named 'EL FARO Shimoma I,' by the end of May 2025. Dedicated to supplying over 200 newly built investment rental apartments in the Tokyo 23 wards, this property signifies a new chapter in the company’s portfolio with the introduction of soundproof units specifically designed for families.

Premium Living Spaces for Diverse Family Lifestyles

As remote work becomes a norm, the amount of time people spend at home has significantly increased. This shift has led to a flourishing lifestyle that includes activities such as movie watching, playing musical instruments, and enjoying quiet reading time. Consequently, there is a growing demand for enhanced sound insulation and privacy within living spaces. Families have expressed the need for living arrangements that accommodate each member's unique schedules and habits.

Taking this into consideration, Miyoshin Enterprise has developed the 'Premium Apartment' in 'EL FARO Shimoma I,' aiming to provide a peaceful living environment where each family member can pursue their own activities—be it work, study, or hobbies—without disturbance.

Young Employees at the Forefront of Design

The soundproof luxury apartment was envisioned by a third-year employee, who brought a fresh perspective to the project. With the guiding principle of 'A Quiet Life,' the apartment promises enhanced tranquility across varying living scenarios. This innovative approach includes advanced noise reduction measures that achieve impressive performance metrics.

The walls and ceilings of each unit are equipped with high sound insulation technology, reducing sound transmission levels significantly. For instance, when a noise level of 100 dB was measured in the living room, the sound leakage to adjacent units was reduced to about 38 dB for both neighboring apartments and external environments. This exceptional sound insulation leads to a Dr-65 rating, indicating a high standard of soundproofing suitable for home theatres and musical practice.

Voices from the Development Team

Shungo Sato, a young representative from the development department who joined Miyoshin in 2022, shared insights on the conceptualization of the project. He stated, "Having the opportunity to participate in property planning after just three years at the company was exciting. I started thinking about what kind of apartment I would want to live in. Many residents of our properties are in younger demographics, and I noticed that my needs often aligned with theirs. With the increase in remote work and time spent at home, the importance of a 'quiet space' will continue to grow. The goal is to create an environment where family members can coexist without disrupting each other's activities, which we achieved with soundproofing throughout all rooms, including the living area. Although I faced challenges in my first project, support from my colleagues helped bring this vision to life. I hope it becomes a space where everyone can comfortably thrive."
