– How EARTH WALKER was bornGuided by its motto of "Living with the forest," ADX has pursued the goal of encouraging the circularity of Japanese forests, driving for this purpose technological advancements in wooden architecture, and active utilization of wood-based resources through design and construction services for commercial facilities, lodging facilities, and residential properties. ADX has also partnered with Sanu Inc. — a provider of members-only vacation home rental and ownership service SANU 2nd Home — since the latter’s inception, pursuing as an architectural service provider eco-friendly architecture that transforms the way properties are developed and built. Examples include building without nails to better enable reuse of construction materials, and adopting raised foundations to mitigate the structure’s impact on the soil. Through its activities, ADX was made acutely aware of the significant challenges for both construction crew and the structures themselves when it came to siting buildings away from urban centers in favor of unspoiled nature — limited availability of power, plumbing, and other public utilities, for instance, and severe weather conditions such as extreme temperatures, high winds, and so on. ADX also felt that existing examples of "extreme architecture" in Japan, many designed primarily for nature observation and shelter from the elements, could do with improvement in their comfort and aesthetic design if they were to serve as more permanent homes or holiday accommodation.
This is why ADX came to create and release EARTH WALKER, a completely new architecture platform offering the benefit of spending time in unspoiled nature to more people, more safely and in greater comfort. For ADX, creating and unveiling EARTH WALKER have meant updating its architectural mission from achieving eco-friendliness to achieving symbiotic relationships with the natural environment. ADX looks forward to growing its business for regenerative sustainability so that forests are enriched as its architectural projects grow in number.
– What EARTH WALKER isDramatic mountains, massive glaciers, forests teeming with all kinds of wildlife — Earth still preserves natural spectacles unaffected by civilization if only people could venture out of their urban dwellings. Designed for those of people who are explorers in spirit, EARTH WALKER is an innovative architecture platform for safely staying on and enjoying the natural delights of untamed land.

– "MOON" in the Summit Series, a concept prototype showcasing EARTH WALKER’s highest specificationsMOON in the Summit Series is a concept prototype designed for comfortable living in environments such as mountains with deep snow and uninhabited islands. To overcome the challenges of inhabiting high-altitude locations with elevations of 4,000 m or more, MOON is equipped with pressurization, oxygenation, and other functions for minimizing the risks of altitude sickness and oxygen deficiency, many of which employ technology originally developed for aeronautics.
