Comparing this museum, designed by Kengo Kuma, another prominent figure in todays Japan contemporary architecture with the design of machiya, does not feel right in many ways. The size, the function, the materials, most of those aspects refer to differences instead of similarities. But from my perspective, there is this one simple visual element that unify both. The lines.
The first one is the lines along the front and side facade. Below are the stairs, which really interesting with the ever-changing shadows from the sunlight hitting the frames.
Sitting there and enjoying the view along the harbor next to the museum seems to be a nice idea. The lines architecture.
