Picture Book Museum
The Museum of Picture Books, also known as the Picture Book Library, is located in Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture in Japan. In 2005, Japanese architect Tadao Ando designed this privately owned special library mainly to serve three preschools.〔http://www.tadao-ando.com/bio_worksE.html, http://www.asally.co.jp/top/sally/this/kataru/2601/kataru2601.html〕 However, visitors flock to the library on its open-access days to see Ando’s design and to enjoy the collection of international children’s books.
==Building==
The building occupies 492.07 m² of space, with the total floorspace amounting to 634.05 m² in Ando's building.〔http://www.japan-architect.co.jp/english/2maga/ja/ja0060/work/05.html〕 Decorations are minimal, largely consisting of the books themselves in a cover-out display that dominates the space.
The only three materials uses in the building are fair-faced reinforced concrete, glass, and wood.〔http://www.east-asia-architecture.org/aotm/index.html〕 Though some may consider concrete a sterile or bland material, Ando sees it as warm and complex. He states, “Concrete can be very rich in color … the gradations of color create a sense of depth”.〔Auping, M. (2002). Seven interviews with Tadao Ando. Fort Worth, TX: Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, p. 34〕
The simplicity of color is noted by some reviewers who mention the fact that the Western notion of child-friendly decor is less stark and angular.〔Hofmeister, V. S. (2008). Lesestoff und frische luft: Museum fur kinderbilderbucher in Iwaki. Baumeister, 105(5), p. 38〕 In the Picture Book Library the only color is supplied by the bright patterns of the books themselves. The corridors are kept deliberately dark, in defiance of a possible Western preference for evenly light-filled spaces. “You will be able to see the light because of the darkness,” says Ando.〔Auping, M. (2002), p. 51〕
