This is the first museum of contemporary architecture in Japan. The museum consists of two buildings: the Steel Hut exhibits the works of the architect Toyo Ito, while the Silver Hut is the relocated and converted former residence of the architect. Inside the museum architectural models are displayed as if they were islands floating on the clear blue water of the Seto Inland Sea. In the dark-blue carpeted room round white cushions are set like clouds over the sea, visitors can make themselves at home and enjoy the displays and the exhibition space while sitting or lying down. Get taken away in this uniquely designed museum as you lose all sense of dimension and space.
