Tottori Prefectural Museum of Art 2024

Set to open in March 2025, this open and spacious art museum faces the expansive Omido Temple Ruins in Kurayoshi City. Central to the museum is a large hall, or hiroma, a warm and inviting space featuring a striking wooden louvered ceiling illuminated to highlight its architectural beauty. This versatile space is designed to host a variety of activities. The museum is also equipped with a wall-mounted lighting system, allowing displays beyond the traditional exhibition rooms. Kurayoshi City is designated as a starry sky conservation area, so the museum’s lighting plan carefully considers light pollution and the surroundings.
