According to architectural economist Mr. Moriyama, it is apparently:

  • more Scarpa-like than Carlo Scarpa himself
  • even better than Scarpa
  • a masterpiece of architecture that would likely receive worldwide recognition

That’s what he says~

So it really was that amazing~

The address is 2-20 Hazukacho, Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
