The limitations they face in Tokyo, with very small plots, seems to make them push the boundaries of their design and they just come up with stunning solutions time after time. The facade is superb and inventive and the building looks as interesting on the inside as it does on the outside. The skin looks quite reflective though. Do we know what the material is? It looks to me like it could be blinding on a bright sunny day. I’ve been a long-time fan of modern Japanese architecture.
