About the "Impossible Architecture ―The Architects Dreams"

This exhibition features blueprints, models, photographs, and computer graphics to introduce a collection of exciting architecture projects since the 20th century that was never realized - due to political views, technical problems, or a lack of intention. Viewers can enjoy an alternative history of architecture featuring some of the most preeminent architects from Japan and abroad.
