Kenzo Tange project came to completion in 1964, to replace the structure that was destroyed during the 2nd world war air raids bombing.
Not much to say from me. I definitely like to let the pictures speak by themselves.
Just want to add a little comment, but I'll do it after you have a look at the 4 pictures I chose for this post. Your impression must take precedence. (^^)

Here we are.
It’s not common for me to admire a modern architecture piece and feel so close to what I experience looking at an oeuvre from a classic Renaissance architect from the past millennia. Same kind of emotions, expressed in a different way. Tange sensei managed to bring together an occidental subject and the oriental culture and sensibility, resolving into a stunning piece of work.
