One thing I like about Japanese architecture is their clean, simple form.

The overall architecture is simple yet complicated in a way that it appears well organized.

Japanese architecture had made great achievements at preserving their cultural aspect while embracing new technology. Japan is a place where the east meets west. And their architecture reflects their custom. Very inspiring to me.
