Basic Info.

Kengo Kuma, one of the leading architects of modern Japan, considers 68 highly public architectures from among the works of Kengo Kuma scattered around the world. “Soft” and “time” are classified and introduced by architectural models, photographs and mockups (actual size models of parts). All the explanations of the works are by Mr. Kuma himself. A research project “Tokyo Plan 2020 (Nyan Nyan)” that reviews life in the city from the perspective of cats has also been announced. This is an exhibition that gives you an opportunity to think about new publicity and the future of the city in the midst of the corona. After the exhibition, we also recommend dinner at “La e Mikuni” where you can enjoy the cuisine of French master Chef Mikuni in a special space called a museum.
