Located in Roppongi, this stunning exhibition space was designed by renowned architect Kisho Kurokawa and opened in 2007. The building is famous for its undulating green glass facade and cavernous atrium, where giant inverted concrete cones support elevated tea salons and restaurants. Operating without a permanent collection, the center functions as an open canvas, showcasing world-class temporary art and design exhibitions.
