The 203m-tall Mode Gakkuen Cocoon Tower symbolizes a cocoon fostering and nurturing the latent talent inside, according to the building's proud owners. The sleek, glass tower will be the home for Mode Gakkuen and two other Tokyo vocational schools, with 10,000 students altogether using the building from April.
