Kyoto International Conference Center

Back in 2015 I had the chance to visit the ICC in Kyoto. An amazing building by the architect: Sachio Otani. The conference center is located inside a beautiful landscape with a lake to one site. The design of the building is based on the Japanese Metabolism movement.

The interior invites to time traveling to the 60s + 70s. Even after more than 50 years of constant use, the building and its furnishings are in very good condition. I published a gallery with 48 slides.
