Kumo-no-Ue-no Gallery (Wooden Bridge-Shaped Art Gallery)
雲の上のギャラリー
The “Kumo-no-Ue-no Gallery (Wooden Bridge-Shaped Art Gallery),” created with the desire to create a building that would blend in with the forests of Yusuhara, is truly a representative work of “負ける建築 (makeru-architecture),” which is synonymous with Kengo Kuma.
The building, with its spreading branches and leaves that create light and shadows like sunlight filtering through trees, is the only building in the world to be built using the traditional timber expression of Japanese architecture as a motif, and is the only building in the world to be built using the frame structure method.
