Over the next 20 years, new art and architecture lodgings designed by select pairs of internationally acclaimed contemporary artists and Japanese architects will be created in and around the historical/cultural zones of Okayama City. Encouraging visitors to experience art through staying in these extraordinary new houses, the project seeks to promote the city as an attractive place to stay and enjoy engaging with various forms of art.
