Image of architecture

This building was designed by a Japanese architect Shigeru Ban. It was built on the slope and the front part of this crescent house face the scenery of Mt. Fuji. The shape of the building is curve which resemble a crescent moon. The walls are made from glass, thus the house will be transparent and visible from the outside. Moreover, the house is symmetrical between the right part and the left part of the house. The cost is quite cheap because of the house itself has few wall and decoration. This house also reflect the culture of Japanese that use natural scenery.
