Perched on a scenic hilltop, the Benesse House Museum is a groundbreaking "museum-hotel" where contemporary art and the natural environment exist in total harmony. The Tadao Ando-designed structure features minimalist concrete lines and open skylights that invite the changing daylight to interact with the site-specific works on display. It offers a rare, contemplative environment where the boundaries between the gallery space and the Seto Inland Sea vanish completely.
