Toyama Prefectural Museum of Art and Design
A masterpiece of design resembling the bow of a ship, where art and design converge.
Opened in 2017, the Toyama Prefectural Museum of Art and Design is built around the concept of "connecting art and design." The architecture is a striking work of art itself, featuring a unique shape reminiscent of the bow of a ship, utilizing aluminum—a major industry in Toyama—in its design.
