It perfectly combines natural landscapes with cultural experiences, attracts many tourists to gain an in-depth understanding of local culture, and drives the development of the tourism industry around Lake Toya. Designer | Kengo Kuma: Famous for his "negative architecture" concept, he is good at integrating nature and architecture. His representative works include the "Bamboo House" at the foot of the Great Wall, the Nezu Museum in Tokyo (which uses glass and green plants to eliminate the boundaries of buildings), and the "National Stadium", the main venue of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, which uses a wooden structure to echo the environmental protection theme. It has won the Japan Institute of Architects Award, the International Stone Architecture Award and other honors.
