Intended to
hold a collection of Edo-era artist Ando
Hiroshige, this museum
in Batoh, Japan was inspired by one of the artist's ink
drawings, "Rain on Travelers". Architect Kengo Kuma noticed how the
artist used thin lines to portray the rain and carried this
technique over into his design; the walls and roof of the simple
box composed of a wood lattice over a wood structure.
