Time Out says

A stone’s throw from Tokyo Midtown, this evocative space is headed by Japan’s golden design trio: founder and fashion designer Issey Miyake, graphic designer Taku Satoh and product designer Naoto Fukasawa. 

The venue stands out for its dynamic roster of exhibitions and diverse events, encompassing thought-provoking talk shows and interactive workshops. The architectural marvel of the building, distinguished by its expansive steel roof, is the brainchild of renowned architect Tadao Ando. Eschewing the conventional box-like design, Ando's signature curved silhouette cascades elegantly towards the ground, inspiring not a sense of confinement but of comfort.
