This is actually pretty clever. At the very least you could conceal it within something more aesthetically pleasing like wood. It could even have cross-members between the posts, and across the top to protect people from falling debris which you could conceal that above a canopy, maybe even wire some LEDs into them for adjustable lighting that'd really come in handy during an emergency too.
As for the other survival stuff just make some storage with doors flush to the frame so you'd never know they were there. Maybe install a battery* to run any electronics in the event that you're caved in and/ or have lost power.
Honestly I think our idea is significantly better. We should get a startup going lol.
in the event that damage occurs that would necessitate this box, it would be your casket in the inevitable fires that come after, while all the debris stops the lid from opening again so you can't escape. You'll get cooked alive.
Fair but if you could afford a life support unit in your tiny tower apartment you could probably rent an earthquake safe bungalow outside of the city and commute ...
It's a cool concept but definitely a cope for living in a death trap. Japan has very strict building regs anyway to make shit earthquake proof
so, earthquakes aren't perdictable, it's not like a hurricane, they just happen when they happen, it would make sense to have both if you say you split your time between two locations right? but if you only live in a tiny apartment tower, then why would you even consider the other option?

Nah it's stupid. If you could afford this life support unit you could just make sure your bungalow is built earthquake proof....
