Design museum in Tokyo Midtown by Ando, marked by a triangular plan and a steeply tilted roof plane.
The roof digs into the site and continues into below-grade galleries—a pocket for looking and thinking in the city.
Highlights
- Tilted roof — How does the angle link plaza views to interior height?
- Entrance — How does light step down from ground to gallery?
