The small amount of light the building lets into the plaza looks like a dream

The size at Tokyo International Forum near Yurakucho Station is breath taking

Each element of the building is a work of art. These wooden panels lined the length of the building

The level of engineering it have taken complete the structure is almost incomprehensible

The large open expanse of the buildings Atrium is incredible at Tokyo International Forum near Yurakucho Station

The plaza outside Tokyo International Forum was no less impressive and had many places to eat

It’s no surprise that Tokyo is host to some incredible architecture and though many of these buildings serve other purposes, visiting solely for the design is something I often find myself doing. Located metres from Yurakucho station is the Tokyo International Forum; a grand structure that is nothing less than incredible. The building is Tokyo’s first convention and arts centre that also contains several shops, restaurants and galleries. The Forum hosted the 2011 International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank Annual Meeting, and will be hosting the weightlifting competition for the 2020 Summer Olympics.
