For any interested, the best book I found on this topic is Project Japan (https://a.co/d/fcrNp6p https://a.co/d/fcrNp6p). It dives into the history of the whole Metabolism movement (in my opinion, an effort to create more modular and dynamic architecture and entire city plans that could be deployed, migrated, and repurposed effectively).
Members of this movement created everything from Tokyo’s iconic phone booth, to the ubiquitous soy sauce container, to ski cabins and a plan to dredge the whole tokyo bay to construct a completely designed cityscape, with some truly wild proposals.
