The consultant committee for
the newest of Japan's National Theatre had a traditional-looking
building in mind when Takamatsu presented a design that has
a traditional flavor without directly copying or mimicking
the past. The building's exterior is dominated by a lattice-work,
concrete wall on all sides that arches overhead towards the
sky. A gap between the wall and the red-tile roof emphasizes
the floating nature of the roof's design as well as the uniqueness
and importance of the concrete wall.
